BIG BOY Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 I would have to say, 3-4 days if you don't know what you're doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mithrandir Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 The quick and simple way - - Take off guard, brakelines, brakes, wheel - Crack the bolt in the bottom of the fork holding in the compression piston - Undo fork cap. No need to take it all the way off - Undo the bolt in the bottom of the fork (with a big can under it to catch all the oil) - Pump fork leg up and down about 20 times - Put back in bolt - Pour oil in top - Pump up and down a lot more to remove air from the system - Put cap back on - Put wheel, brake, guard and brake lines back on - Go ride.... :cycle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
