What is the weight of ATF? Is it all the same? As I recall, there are different types of ATF.

Weight is a SAE rating for lubeication..
forks/shocks work by flow rates that is the
centistroke "CST" rating at 40*c

I have never seen a CST rating for ATF.. but I have
never looked either.... not something i would put in my forks...

the real prob with useing weight.. Is a 10 weight oil
from one company can be the same as a 15 weight from another
the weight rating is all over the place with no real standard..

For a dirt/trail bike...
used in the dirt stay with a centistroke "CST" rating under 18..

There are CST Centistroke charts on the net that give almost
all fork/shock oil from diffrent companys & bike Manafactures oil
in the centistroke rating..

Google is your freind...
