Some go a little OTT stating 16.5 SAE in one leg and 15SAE in the other leg but 15SAE in each leg is OK..hardly thing a GS would notice the other 1.5SAE extra thickness )

Do a search...see Tarkas rants

I have just put in 15w SAE into my 100gs with Wirth progressive springs and the combination of this and the Harrison Billet 6 front brake with Ohlins on the rear make for a sweet handling and stopping machine. F800's and 1200GS dont get away on the twisties. Going offroad,well, these are heavy bikes but increasing fork oil from 7.5 to 15W has not compromised the ride. Stash.,
