Fork oil
Hi guys, going to do my fork seals this weekend, bought 15w oil just noticed in the manual it should be 10w ,should I use the 15w and what difference would it make ,maybe use less than the recommended 169cc . Thanks.
Re: Fork oil
Depends on how you ride, and the roads you ride on. I generally use 15W , and the standard volume, I've tried 10W in the past and I wanted to stiffen things up a bit. But don't increase the volume of oil too much , because that reduces the air volume in the fork leg above the oil and it all becomes harsh and stiff

Re: Fork oil
Thanks the reply, I'll go ahead and add the 15w oil and stick to the recommended 169cc , don't mind if it stiffens the front slightly thanks again.
