How much fork oil ?
« on: June 21, 2012, 09:46:21 AM »
Im putting my forks back together on my 99 kx125 and I dont know how much oil I need. I do not have a manual either.

I looked on kawis website and it said 3.34 inshes (87mm). I am just going to order the actual tool since I am gonna have to go back and get more fork oil anyways.

Hey Dangerous there is a way you are supposed to have the bike set-up to measure the fluid level. 
    Make sure to find a vid on you-tube or get a manual.   (I'll check for one later & post, got to go)

I always Use a tape measure..

And dont run the reccomended ammount of oil in anything I own..     always run more.. (I like more air spring than most I guess)
