I think it's 10w as standard?

I put 15w in last time and it felt pretty good....

Cheers Eddy, I think I'm going to fit new springs at the same time along with new seals, I've noticed lately when I'm out on my X that when I'm riding with mates on their sports bikes that when I'm pushing it my bike is wallowing like a porpoise in fast bends :laugh:

I fitted hagon progressive springs a couple of years ago and it made a big difference, they supply 7.5w with their springs

Also fitted the Hagon springs - number stiffer - and added 15W oil. made a huge dif for me. Feels a lot tighter in the corners now.
