When adjusting the fork oil level, compress the outer tube fully
without the fork spring.
? 09943-74111: Front fork oil level gauge
? Fork oil level (Standard): 124 mm (4.88 in)
? 99000-99001-SS5:SUZUKI FORK OIL SS-05
? Standard fork oil capacity (each leg): 351 ml
or an equivalent fork oil
(11.86/12.36 US/lmp oz
its not how much, the oil level has to be set after the dampening rod assembly has been properly bled out. With the spring removed and the fork collapsed, the oil level should be set at 110mm from the top. 5mm off in either direction can cause either too soft or too stiff. It is always best to have a suspension tech do this with the proper tool to set the oil level.
Standard oil level:
90 mm (3.54 in)
Extent of adjustment:
80 ~ 120 mm (3.15 ~ 4.72 in)
From top of outer tube with
inner tube and damper rod fully
compressed without spring.
CAUTION:
Adjust the oil level in 5 mm (0.2 in) incre-
ments or decrements. Too low oil level
causes the front fork to produce a noise at
full rebound or the rider to feel some pres-
sure on his hands or body. Alternatively,
too high oil level will develop unexpectedly
early oil lock with the consequent shorter
front fork travel and deteriorated perfor-
mance an characteristics. Therefore, adjust
the front fork within the specified range.
Stand the forks up and fill to recommended level with oil (while the forks are vertical and compressed). Add springs, spacers etc if seals were changed. Check manual weight and amount .
