Hi all, I am replacing the oil in my 86 GSX forks, the manual calls for a 50/50 mix of 19w30 engine oil and auto trans oil. Does this equat to any particular grade of commercial fork oil I can buy in a bottle?

At this time of year I would run a 15 weight oil, Maxima is one of the better brands to source.
