I need to change the fork seals and I have been having trouble finding out how much oil it will need when refilled.
It's a 86 Honda Rebel CMX250C. Any links to websites that can give me the info would be appreciated or just somebody who knows how much each fork leg needs.How much fork oil?Each fork takes 240cc or 8.0oz
I got the figures right out of my Honda Spec Manual.How much fork oil?Man for one that old it would be hard, it don't take much I know that, I would try calling a Dealer service center.How much fork oil?Replacing both it will be roughly one liter where the tubes for my VFR needed something like 1.2 liters (annoying, now I have an open bottle sitting around). Hopefully only one fork tube leaked on you and you can measure the amount of fluid in the other tube to figure out how high to fill it. Good luck getting the exact answer.
*edits* For my VFR's forks it's 544+-2.5cm^3 for each tube, so actually 1.09 liters for the set (1 cm^3 = 1 ml). I assume you know what else to do, and the comments on air gap and equal levels are unnecessary.How much fork oil?most bike are usualy about 35 to 50 mililitres. sorry but you DO need to check a manual... It certainly is'nt Lires...
You dont just fill the tubes :-)) and always fill both sides the same or it will screw the handling.
