I think it's an '82 model. A mate is doing one up and can't find any tech specs on the grade and amount of oil for the front forks.

Anyone know? Cheers.

Not specifically that model but Kawas of that period specified 10 - 20W oil - your choice....
And around 290 - 320ml of oil depending on model.

Given what i remember of that model, it's a semi custom so i'd start with 300ml of 15W and he won't be far wrong.

The twin cylinder one? I purchased one new in 82, had it for 22 years.

Sounds like the same one, yup! It's not too bad condition wise, but a freshen up is definitely in order. Should look good once done. I'll see if I can get a pic or two and post its progress.
