Clymer manual doesnt stay what type other than fork oil to answer any of your questions. The amount of fork oil according to Clymers is between 5.9 and 6.9 ounces. Wish I could be more help. Hopefully one of the more experienced Honda fans will be able to help.

thanks for the reply edward! I recently learned that on the older model hondas the best thing to replace the fork oil with is ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid). I havnt really been able to figure out how much to use though so I appreciate you giving me that information! I'm pretty sure I can use just about any high temperature grease on the bearings as well.
