Title: ZOCHS FRONT FORKS
Post by: Rain Man on August 27, 2006, 04:29:07 PM
Okay I know this question has come up several times befor, and i probably asked about it.  I blew a seal practicing today on my GS 400 and need to know... again whats the best weight oil to use and how much.  I ride in very rocky terrain and prefer a softer set up than a harsh.  My jumping days are over.
Thanks guys

Raymond... I use 10wt 290cc with no air. I bleed off all air after each race. This is just what I use. Hope this will help. Gary
