fork oil and torque tightening

Post by ligurt »

Can anyone tell me the oil gradation and amount I have to put in each fork leg in the nc35?
The workshop manual would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

If you own the bike I suggest going on Amazon and getting a Haynes manual. Also there are workshop pdfs on the home page.

Thanks Scotjell, no I don't own the whole bike, only front and rear (both fully refurbed) ends I fitted on a special bike based on the old vf400f, something like the vf400r from practical bikes, but with vf400f engine with yoshimura stage2 cams and other nice tricks :P. So the fork oil quantity from someone of you guys would be an easy solution.

The complete factory service manual is in the document library at the top of the page... :whistle:

This has all the specifications you asked for as well as step by step on how to do it,

Can't find anything about nc35 forks in the document library.
