That's alright, I'll figure it out. I weigh 160 so what do you think would be a good weight oil? 10w (i have 2 1/2 bottles), mix some 10w and 15w or ATF?

Oh, Road... I wouldn't be the best person to tell you, I'm afraid. Nevertheless for MY weigh an MY bike 15w is working wonderfully. Best of lucks!

When I had the Gt 750 Suzuki (longer ago than I care to remember) I used the auto fluid that was made for the Ford autos it is TQF and unlike the Dextron which is red this has a different consistency and worked better in the Suzuki than the usual Dextron. I did have the difference explained but have long since flushed those brain cells away.
I tried the TQF in my Z1300 when I first had it but I liked the Dextron better but it may be different for you as I am near 300lb.
The best part was it is about a 1/4 the price of this wonderful "Fork Oil" which is only varying grades of Hydraulic oil in a fancy bottle.

Alright well I'll probably just use that 10w I have when it comes time to do them, which should be pretty soon.
