Hi all, I am going to overhaul the Cerinai fork of my 1974 250 Chott - it is leaking.
1.) The manual says 220 ccm of TOTAL Azzola 40 to each fork leg - any recommandations which oil to use today?
2.) The manual says the fork seal is 35x47x7 - the exploded view is showing two seals on each fork leg - can anyone confirm?
Ciao, Gert
 
Hi Gert,
I don?t know exactly about the Chott fork, but some forks have two seals instead a two lip seal.

Same basic design as the 750 forks, only slighly longer.  Arturo Ceriani wasn't very imaginative.

Gert, I'd think 10w would be a good starting point
it would be good to know what the air gap is for 220ccm in the Chott forks
not hat i've ever seen one in the states....

seems like most of the old forks used a pair of seals per leg
you could use a single 35x47x10 and be ok
