Which fork oil?
#1
I've been getting a slightly unnerving feeling through my steering for a while, which i can only describe as similar to having a tyre with low pressure.
The thing is the tyre pressure is okay (36f-42r), and the tyre's only a few months old, so i reckon it's going to be something to do with the fork oil.
There's no leaks or anything but i can't really think of any other explanation?
It's mainly noticeable at low speeds too.
My question though is what are your views on 15w fork oil, rather than the recommended 10w?
Is there any major difference in feel?
My forks are just standard one's with no mods or anything, in fact they're older than my bike, without the adjusters on top.
Any comments appreciated as always.


Thanks, Darren.
