Tiger Cub front fork oil

Featured Replies

Hello,

I got this forks for Tiger Cub, Marzocchi 34 mm, guess on Norton sliders. Modified Cub yokes. Lenght from wheel spindle to top of stanction 28.7 "/730 mm. The bike has original frame.

I would need help about changing oil, because i feel them too slow. What type, 5w or 10w, and what volume in each fork? My weight is 154 lb (75 kg).

Many thanks!!!

Try 5w and raise the level a little it will soften them up and the raised level will help stop them bottoming out.

I would say 5W too. Start by taking out the springs and filling with oil until 175mm from top

Hello,

Many thanks for the advice.

I understand levelling the oil with the forks bottomed, and then adjusting the caps with the forks extended.

Best,
