Title: ts185a fork oil capacity
Post by: TT5 Matt on July 22, 2018, 03:43:31 am

does anyone know the fork oil capacity for a 76 ts185a as I need to replace the badly leaking seals before I take it next?

Its kind of weird but the M  forks are the same as the A apart from  internals and the M has 190CC. 30 weight
The supplement for the TS185A says it takes 122CC  10W 20

ATF is what I used back when I was 17 and that's what ive got plenty of to go back in.

Pokey thanks for looking up the specs and 68CC is a big difference for what looks the same forks so might have to compere the part books/strip an A and M model forks to work it  out
