Suspension oil viscosity isn't consistent in the way that engine oils are. Some 5w rated oils will be thicker than some 7w oils on the market. Don't let that worry you too much, though.
Yamalube 01 suspension fluid is typically around 7w. Going to 5w rated fluid gives better damping compliance but if you're a heavy rider and/or a really hard braker, you might prefer to go the other way and step up to a 10w.
