    You need to get the service manual. It will specify the height of the oil in relation to the top of the fork and it may specify the volume you need but this isn't a reliable way of measuring it as there will always be some old oil remaining in the forks. You don't want to put too much or too little in as ellipsis has helpfully recommended.
