Was expecting the BM oil to be a lot more costly.
The fork oil from what i can find in the service history was changed about 25 thou miles ago. Think BM recommends every 30 thou.
Trust me I am a retired Doctor and lecturer at Oxford University of Structural and Mechanical/Electrical engineering.

Can't find anything in the BMW maintenance schedule or Haynes manual.

The fork oil has been in my Camhead for 10 years and 43K miles, think I'll leave it until if/when the seals leak.
