    '82 GS550M Katana fork oil level?

    I'm putting these forks on a GS450L and I can't find a manual online anywhere, can someone tell me the factory spec on fork oil level? I'm going to be using cartridge emulators which add 14mm preload at the bottom of the spring and I'm planning to use 10w oil to start with.

    Thanks,

    It's smoke that make electronic components work.
    Every time I've let the smoke out by mistake, they never work again.
