I'm taking my bike in tomorrow to get the fork seals changed. I've heard that the recommended stock oil level for our bikes is too low at 205mm, and I've seen 130mm and 115mm recommended as something that would work better.

For a rider like me who's 5'3", 125 lbs. what level would you guys recommend and what oil weight?

Thanks a bunch!
