I've googled and I've searched, but I can't find any information as to how much and what grade of fork oil an FZ600 takes. Anyone know for certain?

Whatever grade you fancy putting in the forks surely. Bung in some 30W for harder damping and 10W for softer damping.

Russ fascinated us all by saying... Does it give a height of the oil from the fork top measurement please? -- Lozzo '95 Kawasaki ZZR1100D, '97 Kawasaki GPZ500S, '83 Honda CB250RS Big Zed Little Zed Dead shed New to ukrm? : www.ukrm.net/faq/ukrmscbt.html "He's not big and he's not called Tony"
ITYMF that the grading of fork oil relates to the viscosity of the oil, the higher the number the greater the viscosity. This is to allow individuals to tailor the damping of the forks to their own requirements for example the manual recommends 10W for my Bandit however the front end is too soft and dives too quickly for my liking so I replaced it with 30W to firm it up a bit which it did. Although I thought everyone knew that, everyone except you of course YTC. HTH HAND
