Fork oil.

[Steve64]

Hi all , I have just rebuilt my forks for my 46 Matchless but I do believe they are from a later model although they look the same, they have the damper spring on the bottom, but I was wondering what the best oil to use nowadays or is it still as listed the 20w or a particular brand over another.
Advice greatly appreciated, cheers , Steve

[Steve64]

Gee mate what kept you that reply took all of 3 minutes, but seriously thanks for your help , I know it lists the 20w from years ago and was wondering if anything had changed but if you are all still using the 20 that's good to know.
Thanks again mate for super quick reply, Steve.

[Steve64]

Thanks for that , any particular brand or are they all much the same ?

[g80csp11]

any oil branded as fork oil SAE 20 will be Ok

[Steve64]

No worries thanks for your help, greatly appreciated.

Hi again, hard to find this 20W fork oil over here, I have been told that Shocker Oil No2 is the same , would anyone know if this is correct ?
Thanks again , Steve.
