Post by: Cabmkr on August 09, 2011, 09:52:28 pm

depends on ability and weight but
about 120mm collapsed from the top

10 weight, can run about 8 pounds of air for jumpy track

According to the workshop manual, SAE#10 motor oil , quantity is 415cm3 or oil level of 150mm. Although , if you live in Europe it is 454cm3 and 200mm level.
I use 15 weight at 150 .
