Sounds like you need a Haynes Workshop Manual!

I do have a Haynes manual but it doesn't specify what oil it just states "Castrol" !

Use 10/30 engine oil ,must be mineral not semi synthetic.I actually used 10/40 and its just as plush.I tried fork oil first but it offered no damping whatsover.Stick with the cheapo 10/30
