    Fork oil level

    I'm trying to find the the fork oil level spec for a 1982 GSX 1100 S katana, but I'm having trouble finding it. I've found the model number to be a bit inconsistent with different websites using different model numbers for this bike. If anyone knows where to look for reliable info/specs on this bike it would be appreciated.

    Hi,

    There should be a manual on my little website. I would think the level would be around 140mm.



    Thank you for your indulgence,

    BassCliff

      Is it an 1100 or 1000 ?

      My manual shows fork oil capacity (not level) of 227 ml for a 1982 GS1000SZ. Not sure there was an 1100SZ.

        227ML ? I believe that's just over 7.5 oz. I dump 1/2 a qt in each of mine.
