September 13, 20214 yr Hi there. I have a 2001 Sherco which is running 38mm forks off a 2003 GASGAS. I am currently servicing them. Can anyone tell me what weight fork oil they run, capacity per leg, and air volume? You know, all the usual stuff. I have had no luck so far finding any service information for these units. Thanks in advance. Tony
September 13, 20214 yr I think your best bet is to contact The Hell Team in Sydney, Have a look on their website "thehellteam.com" they list a lot of files for trialsbike owner and parts manuals. From what I looked at The oil is 5wt or 7.5wt, leaving an air gap of 130mm. (fully compressed and without the spring) Personally I use the heavier oil, but my forks are 40mm on a 2004 gasser. Hope this helps, Rick.

September 16, 20214 yr @anthonysawrey curious if you've found any materials for this fork, I'm looking for the same for my 2003 TXT Pro. Mainly I'm looking to service them and see if I can figure out why there's no rebound dampening

Mainly I'm looking to service them and see if I can figure out why there's no rebound dampening Hi there. I'll keep you updated. It looks like the right side is rebound dampening and the left compression. But I'll get back to you once I've had a good look at mine.
September 17, 20214 yr Author Here is some more info. Disc side has a red clicker on top. opposite side has a black clicker on top. I found a parts fiche by typing in the part number of the fork legs BT280114019 & BT280114009. You will see on that diagram that the black clicker is compression. I would assume that the red on the disc side is the rebound. https://www.bike-parts-gasgas.com/gasgas-motorcycle/TRIAL_200/2003/TXT_2T_PRO/TXT-PRO-200/FRONT-FORK/223/5/0/223
September 17, 20214 yr Author The red is definitely rebound. There is an E on the clicker. Rebound in tech Spanish is Extensión
