[QUOTE="oilspot, post: 1388179, member: 72261"] Got the fork seals done on my friends 2002 kx125. I got the specs from the dealership that each fork should have 22oz of fork oil. I put in 12 oz and its right up to the top with the forks collapsed, springs out. So I figure pump everything and mabey some massive air bubble will come out and I'll be able to add the rest of the oil. NO dice! So then we figure okay, mabey they ment 22oz for the whole front end. That would mean we put an extra 1oz in each side. So on to checking the oil height. I end up sucking out 4oz from each side to get the 5.25" oil height. Put it all together. My friend says it rides better but sits lower. And when he gets the bike off the ground the forks make a slap when they extend. I rechecked all the schematics and know that everything is together correctly. The only thing in question is the amount of fork oil. [/QUOTE]
