Well, according to my yamaha 3tj service manual the quantity of the fork oil is 433cc (15,2Imp. oz, 14,6 US oz).
Also, the oil level (from the top of inner tube compressed without spring) must be 106mm (4,17in)
And just to know, the minimun free spring length is 364mm (13,9in). ;)
Great if your setting up a bike for the Japanese home market but these bikes are undersprung. If you want something that doesn't bounce like a space hopper you might want to follow the forum's advice ... :o

Yes man, you are absolutely right! These are for the sp version. What you wrote above are the right ones. I just checked it out. ;)
