Title: YZ 250G Fork oil
Post by: philthy on October 06, 2010, 08:50:14 pm

Hi all,
I have just bought a 250G with the intention of racing VMX,and I want to service the front end before the first meeting.Could anyone give me a heads up on what oil weight and quantity works best on this particular model.I want to keep it simple ,ie no fork internal mods.

Hey Philthy,

Clymer says 387 ml of 15 weight per leg or 200mm from the top.  You could go heavier on the oil weight if you are "heavier"  ::) ;D
