According to the manual it's 331 +/- 2mm extended, without main spring. Viscosity SAE10W, about 240mL when changing oil. After disassembly and completely dry: 281 +/- 4mL.

Thats what I needed to know.
I got the old girl up and running yesterday. All the electrics work even the horn and considering the state of it when I got it thats a major surprise. It runs really well nice and responsive and no rattles. I just need a fuel tap now but I think the KR1 tap will fit.
