Just been reading a new book on Ducati mods and the following is recommended if you are not going to the expense of having your forks professionally rebuilt:

For the early non-adjustable 600SS forks

1) 5 or 7 weight fork oil

2) Using LESS than the factory recommended amount, 320cc per leg, rather than 457cc.

Ducati say to use 390cc in the 600SS - Marzocchi 40USD/E SAE 7.5 oil - as standard!
