    I decided to do a test between 20W and 30W oil, to see which one I preferred;

    Marzocchi / Aprilia MX 125 Fork Oil Test-1 SF 30W

    https://youtu.be/Kl7nnGWJTTI

    Marzocchi / Aprilia MX 125 Fork Oil Test-2 SF 20W

    https://youtu.be/3YjsmakFzaY

    The 30W took more force to compress the forks and the rebound was slightly slower, which is what you would expect. The compression & rebound with the 20W was noticeably quicker and I felt that the forks would recover better over bumps and during braking. So I decided to stick with the 20W, as I felt that would give a smoother ride overall. Only time will tell once I have gotten the bike back on the road though. :winking_face: :winking_face: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

      So I've been using my DT some recently. And it's so awesome not to worry about speed bumps anymore. They are more a welcome challenge than a nuisance lmao.

        @Calum Good to hear that it's finally seeing some action! Have you still got your GoPro? If yes you should take some footage and more importantly have a friend film you, so we can all see your beastie in action!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :motorcycle: :dashing_away:

                            Sadly I badly injured my back at work a few months ago, so I've been unable to do any work on the bike since the injury. My back is getting much better now so hopefully I'll be able to restart working on this project again real soon.........
