Fork Oil Volume?

(1/2) > >>

stock500:
I will be replacing my fork seals, and I can't find my owners manuel.  I think each fork takes 20.4 ounces of oil, but I need to be sure.  Does anybody know for sure?

Theres a post in here about replacing fork seals. The post didn't specify a quantity, but rather a oil level height. Was something like 3 7/8" to 4" from the top, collapsed.

stock500:
Thanks for the reply.  I found my owners manuel, and it has the info I need.

You are much better to work on level than oil volume.  It is a more exact measurment and easier to tune by.  My K5 forks worked best with a lower level and stiffer springs. Cam.

martinfan30:
What weight, level and springs?
