fork oil

Post by twisty »

standard weight fork oil for the corsaro is according to the manual 7.5w

I know i could drop to 5w oil but would 2.5w be too thin an oil. :?:

I reckon the damping on the front is way to hard as stock

Hello,

I have checked workshop manual for Corsaro today but I haven't found procedure for front fork oil change. Only thing I have found was disassembly/assembly of the front fork and during this procedure was one step draining old oil and one step was filling new oil.
So I would like to ask, if is possible to change front fork oil without complete disassebly of the fork...?

Maybe just loosen lover screw and upper big nut for draining old oil, then tighten lower screw back and fill with new oil thru opened fork on the top?? I'm just guessing it might be done like this...maybe not...

Thanks for advices.

I believe you can mix weights to get something in between. Not sure what proportions you would need though.
