Fork oil quantity
#2
I'm sure someone that has messed with their forks will chime in eventually (the board is kinda slow this time of year). I can only quote from the service manual for a 2013 US model. Forks should be the same though.

Recommended Fork Fluid: Pro Honda Suspension Fluid SS-8 (10W) or equivalent.

Fork Fluid Capacity: 495+- 2.5 cm3 (16.7 +- 0.08 US oz, 17.4 +- 0.09 Imp oz.

Pour in the above amount, then slowly pump the fork pipe several times to remove the trapped air.

Slowly compress the fork pipe fully and measure the oil level from the top of the fork pipe. (In other words, from the oil level to the top of the tube). It should be 117mm or 4.6 inches.

And according to the picture in the manual, apparently you have to pour it in using a special beaker using your transparent hand LOL.
