    ^^ check your service manual.

    There should be no capacity on inverted forks. Just level.

    The fact that you're doing your forks and not know this doesn't sit with me very well. :D

    Manual calls for fork oil level @88mm plus or minus 2mm

    Capacity is 563ml dry, but I agree with above, go by the level, not the volume.

    16.2 US oz. is drain and service fork side each.
    19.0 (+/-) 0.14 US oz. is poured in a dry fork after assembly is complete.
    5w Fork Oil is OEM weight.

    Collapse fork and slider without spring inside. From the ridge of the open end, drop a measured 92mm length welding rod down the tube to measure a file mark at 88mm. You should be: Plus/minus this height by 2mm.

    Data taken from the ZX-14 FSM sitting next to me.
