15W or 20W with progressive springs??

[TR]

I can't find 15W fork oil at shops, should I get 20W or stick to 10W??? Also, what dou you lube clutch cable with??? regular SAE40??? any special kind of grease???

Any help is welcome??

i put 15wt in my bike with kerry's help. It seems hard enough. Dont go 10, i believe its stock weight. 20 might be a bit too much depending on how much you weigh.

Try getting the 15wt online, it will take a few days to arrive.

if you have a cyclegear nearby (cyclegear.com) go check there.. i got mine there.

i used 20 weight and love the way the front ends feels..

Thank you guys, no cyclegear near, so I might do as sparky and try 20W, I am 200 pounds so I gues 20W will do fine.

You can always mix one part 10W to one part 20W :mrgreen:

i have progressives and gold cartrige emulators, i run 20W, love every bit of feedback it gives.

Good advice Callmelleny; I don't know how cartridge emulators work, I only replaced the springs and put  1.5" long spacers. I't's not very dificult to disassemble the fork even with the TCP fairing on, so I can try the 20W.

Thanks for your posts guys!
