Currently rebuilding a set of the leading axle 35mm Cerianis.

Does anyone have a suggestion for quantity and weight of fork oil?

Thanks,

Rod:
You are indeed the suspension guru. Thanks for such a comprehensive answer.
As noted the bikes 1975 thru 1978 came with a whole variety of forks and the manuals did not keep up.
I have printed this out to include with my manuals, and I expect that a bunch of POG members will do the same to keep as reference.
Thanks again,
Mike

The first number with the amount is if a total take down and clean, the second amount if it is a drain and refill.
