Fork oil level?

[nodogma]

Race Tech recommends 130 mm.
Here on the list and in the manual I see 100 mm.
I am aware of how oil level affects suspension, primarily it affects the last bit of travel.
Being a larger guy (fat) wouldn't running the oil higher than R/T recommends seem prudent?
Any thoughts.

Happy trails,

Not really, A higher oil level can actually shorten your travel a bit as it stiffens it up sharply at the end. You'd do much better installing heavier springs.
