    CR125 '02 fork oil and spring ID?

    hi, does anyone know what type of fork oil is used in a 02cr125? weight, brand etc. im new to forks.

    also trying to find out what the springs are, should they be stamped on the springs anywhere? fork guards have suspension tech stickers on them, trying to find out if its stock or not to decide how much oil to put in

    Fork oil will be 5w

    Suspension tech does revalves etc so the sticker doesn't mean the springs have been changed, althou they could of been.

    If the springs are not stock the usually have a stamp or marks/lines on the top.

    Why not put the stock amount of oil in and see how much travel etc you use. If you want more or less just unscrew the top cap and remove some with a syringe or add some. Prob wouldn't go in more than 10ml steps thou

    As long as it's a make you've heard of before it should be ok. Maxima is ment to be really good although never used it before.
