Putoline HPX R 4W Front Fork Oil 15 Liters

Putoline HPX R determines how your fork reacts to bumps. Content 15 liters.

With 4W you are in the lighter part of the range. The fork moves faster and feels more comfortable.

What fork oil does

Your front fork springs on the springs, but the damping comes from the oil being forced through small passages. The thickness of that oil determines how fast the fork compresses and extends. Fresh oil provides noticeably smoother handling than oil that has been in for years.

Thicker or thinner

• A lighter oil allows the fork to move faster and feels more comfortable.
• A heavier oil slows down the movement and provides more support during hard braking or with a heavily loaded motorcycle.
• Fill both fork legs with exactly the same oil and the same amount. You will immediately feel the difference between left and right in the handling.

Filling and checking level

The oil level in a fork is measured from the top of the fork tube, with the spring removed and the fork fully compressed. That measurement is in your workshop manual and is more accurate than measuring by volume. A few millimeters difference in level noticeably changes the damping at the end of the stroke.
