« on: 01 September 2019, 04:33:50 pm »

hi guys looking to change fork springs for a new set question is............. if you measure fork oil and air gap before you put the spring in how are you supposed to know if it is correct because you wont know.......... obviously air gap is 121mm and fork oil is 475ml but is the spring is going to displace more or less oil how do you get the correct amount apart from buying originals from say folwers or such???
