Hi guys , I'm servicing my 73 750 GT forks and replacing the seals.

Automatic transmission fluid, or SAE 10 fork oil, is the recommended dose, but I've always preferred SAE 15.

Have a read on the link below, but keep in mind that I posted this up about 8 years ago or so. I really like MOTUL fork oils and depending on how much you weight and what fork springs you have in there, I would have a specific recommendation as to which one to use.
