mcman56 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 I'm changing fork oil and have some confusion. The manual says 370cc in the right leg. However, with fork and cartridge rod compressed 370 will over flow the tube. Is 370 not correct? (I did pump the rod and fork to purge air.) I plan to set the final volume by the 60 mm height but am concerned that the 370 number is not close. The sad thing is that I have done this before and do not remember.

lineaway Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 370 should be dry, as in rebuilding the forks. You cannot go wrong with the level measurement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcman56 Posted August 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 You are right. I looked at the instructions agaion and the cartridge needs to be removed to be drained. I must have done that last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slicktop Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 370 should be dry, as in rebuilding the forks. You cannot go wrong with the level measurement. When you say 'level measurement', do you mean the same amount in each leg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcman56 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Level as in oil level below top of fork tube, 60 mm and 120 mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
