Hi Maurice,
10 weight volume 180cc good starting point.
Mind you I've had good results with 7.5 weight oil for the road.

Fork oil has anti-frothing additives.

So do Shell Tellus hydraulic oils, been using Tellus 68 in my Laverdas' for over 40yrs with no problems, cost a shipload less to purchase especially as it is available for free on most sites I work on.
fork oils have a pretty coloured die in them and multiply the price by 200%
