i've just put a 550 front on my 350....not tested yet. but have read up to 160cc of oil and i've added and inch of spacer in each leg....15wt. i'm sure there are others that know better and yeah, i still have to test mine.

this fork sucks.
so i rebuilt my cb550 forks. im pretty sure my springs are totally clapped out. there is about 1.5" of sag when i unweight it and then let it drop. then when i sit on it another probably 3/4". i put a zip tie on the tube and it bottoms pretty easily under moderate braking. and i have noticed it sometimes crunches pretty hard in some of our nice city potholes. im running 145cc 10 weight. like the book says. how much of a difference are my new springs going to make??? anyone??? or will it still have that crappy mush feel?
