From what I understand the stock oil weight is Yamaha 0wt which is equal to every aftermarket oil 5wt. He had his suspension set up and the low speed compression is 3 clicks and the high speed compression is 2 clicks on the front fork. The tuner said he needed new oil. The question is: Should I put stock 5wt/yam0wt or put 7.5w or even 10wt in them and reset the dials up front.
He doesn't really wheelie. He's ~170lbs with full gear and most of his riding is advanced twisties. When I rode it I felt like the front end dove and didn't stick well in corners. That's what makes me think the weight needs to go up. Or maybe the original oil is that degraded? The rear end feels planted if not a little soft as well.
Either way I'd be curious to see what a few other's spec sheets look like because his is all over the place.
