Front fork maintenance question

music man · 07-14-2008, 02:20 PM

I have looked pretty good on here and I don't think there is already a post on here for this and I even looked pretty good in the service manual and didn't see anything about it, so here goes.

Can you check, add, drain and/or change the front fork oil without taking them completely off the bike or doing anything else besides maybe taking the weight off the front end, in other words am I gonna take the caps off and spontaneously combust or something if I don't do something specific. I know you cant change the seals or anything like that without taking them off, but what about the oil.

Later
