[QUOTE="hppants, post: 1254418, member: 27852"] To clarify, on my Gen 1, I put an exact volume of oil in each fork. I believe it was 655 cc. I have a graduated funnel that is pretty accurate (to within 5 cc). I always did that with the forks extended. I must be mistaken regarding the oil overflowing issue, I've done this on a lot of motorcycles and some of them are this way (overflowing when fully compressed). Regarding the Gen III oil levels, can anyone offer the exact volume for each fork, perhaps from the field service manual, as opposed to adding oil up to a certain level? [/QUOTE]
