Greetings uncle buck, damn good choice to cut your teeth on, should hold its value well too if you look after it properly...dont let that exhaust rust away !
I'd like to see it
you got this wrong, 5W is thinner than 10W, so mixing 50% 10W and 50% 5W would give you 7.5W...thinner than the 10W you started with !
I would put a bit less than the specified amount in because you arent starting from a bone-dry fork assembly
well you've just had a free lesson in internet forum etiquette, arent you glad you came here
, god knows what you are describing, it's so small it must be an owner manual?
Haynes says for model 3RN1 onwards...495cc per leg, SAE 10W fork oil
what I meant with 'this shouting thing' is the use of capital letters, widely recognised as portraying a bit of a temper, if you dont get the answers you are looking for in the time duration you self impose then it's no use resorting to shouting...just soldier on patiently, anyway not every question is answered...what do you thing we are the oracle?
just looked in my manual (Haynes) and the info is in there so how come it's not in yours?
Dont think shock absorbers get 'seviced' as such..more a case of an expensive rebuild! I wouldnt bother, your time and money would be better spent making sure all the pivots are free and greased
dont forget the rubber cover on the chain roller, try these guys...they will get them if they are available, I've got spare chain roller and it's rubber cover somewhere if you are stuck...the steel pivot can be made from a bolt if you cannot source one...ask NEO

Greetings Jason
would it be the same for a TY80, these have a chainguard for 80cc models but they are in UK,

me too, it's huge fun getting the family pug chasing the spot around you can give him his daily exercise without even leaving your armchair but the best fun of all is when he gets some speed up on a laminate floor and has no brakes for the impending collision with the wall...he never learns
