Vintage Xr fork oil Height

[Hallzilla]

I have a 1980 XR 80 that i finally go around fixing up a bit and bought some new fork seals for. Would anyone know the proper amount to add ? Can't find any info on this.

I think it might be close 3oz ? But not really sure.

Thank you

Try 2.5 oz per fork leg. That is what I have been able to research

Out of my Honda Service Specifications Manual 1959 - 1980, XR80 forks...........?

To fill dry fork assembly 115 - 120cc (3.9 - 4.1 oz)

To refill after draining 105 - 110cc (3.5 - 3.7 oz)

It shows 84-85 XR200R after draining only, at 355cc (12.0 oz).  For 86-90 it shows 350cc (12.0 oz) and also gives a specified level of 150mm (5.9 in.).
