Hi
Can someone tell me fork oil quantity/height in forks
Ta!!

I have it written down in my specs book that for an MC18 R5k:
Front forks take 383cc each and that this oil level is supposedly 108mm from top of stanchion when fully extended.
I can no longer remember where I got this info from, so,...
... maybe someone else can confirm this, or declare it incorrect?

<edit>
ah, that should read "fully compressed" not fully extended.
Also, it looks to me as though the info in the table linked to in the post below has been well researched,..
so go with that. Good work Javes.
</edit>

I just replaced my mc21SE fork oil per data in the table at the bottom of this page and it now works beautifully.

It looks like 108mm/383 cc correspond to mc16 though.

The oil levels have also been in the "notes" section of the Online Parts Manual for almost as long as it's existed.
