I've just reconditioned my forks on my xj 550 and found out that they are
from an xs 750 bike ,the job is done now but I do not know how much fork oil
to put in, dose any body know.
The bike shop that I got the fork oil from said that it is 170cc each fork,
but I suspect that this is just a gestimut ,but this seams a bit low to
me.The manual said that for the origanal xj550 forks, it would have been
269cc so I am a bit confused as to how much to put in . I could always put
in the 170cc, and add as I go along until it feels right, but i would like a
"guide figure" to go by as to how much the manual might say should be in the
xs750 forks when on an xs750 bike.
So has anyone out there got a manual that they can read me what it might say
,thanks
