Being my 10's fork oil has probably never been changed in 23 years and 39k miles, its likely due to be done.

Fork oil? I didn't see that when I bought mine. But I also have stupid SV forks so it may not matter much. I did put a much heavier weight oil in mine.

Twice a year.

I'd guess that is every 1200-1500 miles.
