Usually if you are reasonably mechanical inclined, you can normally accomplish the tasks when using the Haynes Manual.Ĭheck the front forks at 7500 mile intervals. The Haynes is well written, as the tasks are actually being performed, by someone who knows what they are doing.
So the higher the viscosity, the more dampening you get, since it takes more force to get the fork oil through the holes in the valves in the forks. The higher the viscosity, the slower the fork oil flows. Haynes Service and Repair Manual including shipping was $33.97 I very much prefer the Haynes over the Clymer. The thickness of fork oil is measured in viscosity, or how resistant the fluid is to flow. I like to have a factory manual when possible, however they do not explain how to do things but assume you know how. Shipping time stated is less than a week. Note that appropriate viscosity base fluid/and color is required to meet minimum tolerance specifications (our recommended fluids are best suited for this).
I ordered from this site for the total price including shipping of $76.95. ate supplements to use in the option 2 section of this chart. I checked with a local Suzuki stealer and the price plus tax was $101.02. Suzuki Service Manual up through 07 models. There is a link for free download of some manuals I did not check them.
