Fork Oil Level On 2008 280 Txt Pro

Featured Replies

Hey guys,

After speaking with GasGas they have advise due to me being only 9.5 / 10 stone, to remove a tiny bit of oil in my forks. They have said that there should be an air gap of 165mm.

What I wanted to know if should that be 165mm with the fork fully compressed with the top caps off and with the spring and everything inside?

What I also wasn't too sure about was whether I need to just remove the nut on the top cap or whether I have to remove the red cap which has the holes in with a pin spanner. I'm assuming it is this one I have to remove to be able to measure it correctly but I wanted to clarify before I did.

I've only owned a pair of Marzocchi push bike forks before but these have different top caps!

Thanks in advance

Hi Bilks,

Thanks for the PDF's. I did look through them but unfortunately they don't provide alot of information in regards to measuring the fork oil level :(
