    Fork oil amount 78 750

    OK, my manual lists fork oil amounts for about 5 different bikes (L. EX, EZ, TZ etc.) but it doesn't list the fork oil amount for my 78 750c.

    I know it's not so much the amount but that their even; however, does anyone know the specs on this?

    Thanks!

    Well, if it doesn't list a spec, it must not need any.

    OK, most of the time the level is around 6 inches from the top of the tube, with the spring removed, the fork compressed and held vertical.

      Why do you even have that manual? It apparently only covers the 16v 750s, and in essence is completely worthless to you....

      I will look it up here in a bit..

            Ok, that makes sense. The 750 (8valve) manual on Bass Cliffs sight confirms the 180 cc.

            I am just too anal and that seemed way to unspecific for me.

            Thanks Josh!
