Traditionally, Japanese bikes are set up for a 160 lb. rider.
As someone suggested, rather than worrying about measuring the fork oil, one could empty forks of all oil and then add the specified amount. Since that needs to be looked into, the cost of fork oil into the process is not too much. And if it's suspected the oil has been changed or adjusted by the previous owner, it would be best to dump it out and start over with the correct type and amount of fork oil. I believe the Honda SS10 is standard in this bike.
