5w is standard but a good mod is ---- 20wt fork oil
stiffer springs (the stock sv650 springs are ridiculously soft)
Racetech Emulators
413ml ( 14/14.5 us/imp oz ) each leg with springs removed
good luck

Hi Lukepentcof.
its 350cc or 11.8 ounces in the Clyma book, but that's for a 1986 onwards model. you can vary the amount you use to suit your style of riding anyways. I doubt it would be that far from the mark.

Use Yamaha suspension oil #01. Amount is 19 ounces. Oil level from top surface w/o cap nut is 3.15" to 5.51". I am sending you a link to a site where you can download a free shop repair manual. It is actually a bit complicated as you will see in the manual.
