Fork oil

Where to get, doubleplus cheap?

The nearest place to you which sells it.

 

Automatic Transmission Fluid.

 

I went out and spent a little on a lot but I wouldn't pay much for
fork oil.

 

You want to buy four coils?

 

****, another acolyte of AndrewR.....

 

Made me think of that bloke in1984 who kept on saying something like
that.

 

..........

 

Parsons is probably who you're thinking of, but hardly anybody in 1984 says
much in Newspeak.

You're talking too quietly.

You can hold up an argument for this, I hope.

 

Yes - other than being the Guzzi factory recommended oil - it's about the
same as 10-15 weight fork oil has excellent anti foaming properties,
doesn't fade with heat, lubricates and also is an extremely good damping
medium. Ideal for machines where ultimate oil tuning performance isn't
an issue, i.e. most bikes.

It's also a **** sight cheaper than fork oil.

There you go.


I've got some of that in the shed. Perhaps I will take the bindit apart
for no good reason tommorrow.

 

You can buy a gallon of ATF for about 7 or 8 quid.

 

Or was it four candles?

 

Lots of SOBs use them, and the manuals recommended it. For the very
latest variable damping USD forks, well, no, proper suspension fuid
rolled on the thighs of virgins, but for any old hack, it's fine.

 

Was also the recommended oil for some old, smaller Hondas, e.g.
CB125Twin.
