I have just rebuilt my 4L0 forks using Hagon progressive springs & used 10w/30 oil with a 140mm air gap as recommended by Hagon.

I just did mine. Used 145ml Motul 15w... supposed to be 195 from the top of the stachion when it's slid right down with the spring out, apparently. There still off the bike, so can't tell you if I got it right.

Just done my standard forks and used Halfords 10w fork oil measured at 195 and it feels spot on really happy.
I read somewhere that standard engine oil can go frothy don,t know if its true or not.
