i've got a 2000 model Z4 flylight air, i was wondering if anyone had any advice on what oil to use. ie. motorbike shock oil, brands whatever!
The word on good oil!

Marzocchi suggests Golden Spectro 125/150 wt oil (about 7.5 weight).
As long as you use a motocross fork oil that DOES NOT use detergents or seal swellers, you are fine. 7.5 weight is stock, going to thicker oil (higher numbers) will slow rebound somewhat, and sometimes compression. If you have a bottomout problem, raise the oil HEIGHT a little bit, that usually helps.

Would this info be on the bottle somewhere?

Yamaha 7.5 works very well with that fork.

Yes, it should be written somewhere. If in doubt, ask someone in the store, they should know their stuff.
