    Is it adjustable? if it is just go for a middle of the road weight oil, if its non adjustable you will need to play around with different oil till you find a level of damping you want... hope that helps.

    cheers.. yeah it's adjustable.. so 10w fork oil will do then.. don't have to go out and buy special steering damper fluid. Felt like CRC in it before i pulled it apart

    yeah 10 should be fine then. if its had some "strange" oil in it you should check the o-rings etc
