    I'm rebuilding my vx 125 forks, Haynes manual states 80cc of fork oil in each leg. How much do I need to put in?

    That's what I thought when I converted it.... surely that's too little? Way more than 80ml came out when I drained them

    How much came out ? If the Haynes says 80 it’ll be fine

    A lot more than 80ml. But if that's what it calls for I'll put that in. Even watching videos online they seem to put a lot more than 80ml in but then again they are motorcycle forks as opposed to scooter.
    Came on here for a second opinion really
