Re: Fork oil question
Just looked in the manual and it says 495ml #10 so I presume thats 10 SAE
Or for others looking for top up information its 105mm from the top of the tube with the spring and gubbins removed and the fork compressed.......so you have to remove the fork leg and you may as well drain and refill with fresh oil.
