The oil filling in the front fork amounts to 30 cc. per leg of good
engine oil such as Mobiloil A (SAE 30).
When released, the outer pressure spring has an overall length
of 328 ± 2 mm. At a pretension of 50 mm the spring must show
a load of P = 35.5 kg.
When released, the inner pressure spring has an overall length
