Just fill it to the top with 10W40 and run a little less pressure in that 23" wheel.

No worries at all matey. I figured you'd find out on some Honda spec site. If youd got real lost 6" from top compressed np spring is a super rough rule of thumb

LOL. Actually l was enquring on a mate's behalf who could not find an answer on the web . . . and nor could l. So in the end l suggested 5 inches. It seems to work well.
