Having had a hard time finding motorcycle fork oil and being too impatient to
wait for Armstrong oil from VB, I decided to try hydraulic jack oil in my front
lever shocks. I sucked out all the old stuff with a syringe before topping up
with the new stuff. It has made a huge difference - quite stiff. I initially
intended this as a temporary measure to see if it improved handling. It did
such a good job I'm tempted to leave it in but I don't know if it will have an
adverse affect on the longevity of my shocks. Anyone have any long term
experience with this?
