Hi, In my Haynes manual, it states the oil capacity is 140cc per leg or 190cc below top of stanchion. Bit puzzled. Any ideas?
I was originally going to put 140cc in from the top plug, but not so sure now.

In Haynes I think its meant to be 195mm +/- 5mm fill to below top of stanchion. Not 190cc below. ie measure down the inside of the tube to the oil level.
Or 140cc if the fork was dismantled, 130cc if not due to deposits likely to have been left on inside.

I always fill to 140mm air gap, stanchion depressed, springs removed.
10 or 15w fork oil.
OEB

OEB The sticker on the box of the Hagon springs I've just got states 140mm air gap too, the instruction leaflet inside says to refil each fork so that the oil level is approximately 300mm from the top of the fork leg, then pump 15 to 20 times. These two measurments just don't seem to match up at all though. Anyone know how many cc's of oil you should be using with Hagon springs? They are a bit longer than the standard springs, Haynes states 140 +/- 2.5cc for those so surely it's no more than that?? |
