I'm looking in a clymer manual for a 1991 yz125, and when u look at the front fork oil capacities they say its 564ml or 19.1 oz.
But the table underneath tells u the normal max and min height for the oil capacites.
So what happens if u were to clean the forks entirely, and just put in 19.1 oz in the tubes and blead the air out. Would u be good to go b/c the manual tells u the capacity is that much? I know oil level is the accurate reading and is crucial, but I don't understand the meaning for the capacity table...
Way back when before I knew anything about anything, I used to just go by the capacity table and put in the capacity amount into ea. fork tube. I never had any problems, but I didn't think it was ver smart after I actually thought about it a year or 2 l8er.
