Fork Oil & Reckless Fairing

dholmer · 07-01-2013, 02:22 PM

Hey guys, I should be getting my rexkless fairing in a few weeks and was wondering if any of you put in a heavier weight oil to compensate for the extra weight on the front? If you did, which weight oil did you go with?

Thanks Guys...

Its pretty light... not sure it ways much more than the windshield.

Hi DeWayne, I don't have a fairing but I changed my oil to 20W. It's not so squishy now.

Thanks guys,
I think I will change it it 20W because I think it is a little too squishy lilke Dave said.

The fork oil is pretty light, I think you will find that the 20 does a much better job.
