3.9 US quarts of oil is the capacity. I have not had any trouble just pouring in the full 4 quarts. You should only use a JASO MA motorcycle oil 10w-40 or 20w-50 depending on outside temperature. Any oil that says Energy Conserving on the label should not be used they will shorten wet clutch and gear life. I highly recommend synthetic oil (Amsoil , Mobil 1 [motorcycle}, etc.)they will make the bike run cooler and shift more easily. Synthetic hypoid in the final drive will reduce friction and make it run cooler and last longer too.

What weight fork oil should i use in a 1987 goldwing
Many Gold Wing riders use ATF. I would try this first. See how it rides. If you want a firmer ride use 15W fork oil. Rod

Can I put synthetic oil in a 1987 honda goldwing and what grade if so
Yes, Honda recommends 10w-40 year round. For hot weather or for long trips 20w-50 is good. Use only JASO MA certified motorcycle oil . DO NOT use any oil that says ENERGY CONSERVING on the label. It will shorten transmission gear and wet clutch life. Both Amsoil and Mobil One make excellent full synthetic motorcycle oils. Your engine will run cooler and shift smoother. You should also consider synthetic hypoid gear oil in your rear end, it will also benefit from less friction and will run cooler .

Need help with removing back tire on 1987 honda gold wing aspencade 1200 ccs
Well, best to get an Owner's manual, next best, take it to a motorcycle shop if you do not have the patient or skill. If you are changing the tire, you may need to balance the wheel (rim) again which require a skilled expertise.
