[QUOTE="phoneman064, post: 813256, member: 53200"] Barbarian, The racetech method of measuring oil levels has you evacuate the oil from inbetween the fork tubes by fully extending the forks after filling with oil. The Kayaba method is to leave the area between the tubes full of oil for the measurement. The racetech recommendation presumes that you extend the forks before a measurement is taken. I believe the area between the tubes can hold as much as 20cc of oil. That is the "technical" difference between the two methods of oil level measurement. My experience with Kayaba's is that you definitely need the mid-valve for even mildly agressive riding. I believe that Racetech recommends leaving the mid-valve in on 2001 and later YZ's to remedy the problem you are discribing. good luck, Dave [/QUOTE]
