Would it be a problem if I just bought more oil and made both forks up to the specified level? I think that if I did this there would be at least 700ml in each fork to get them both up to 121mm from the top!
It all pointed to something being wrong, it would have been a massive mistake (and potentially dangerous) to not investigate why there were big differences with quoted levels and what you had!
my bad! This is why I don't like typing on my phone....Cheers again guys, and you're right, I'm so glad I looked into it further instead of just going with what I had and ended up crashingWill
Oh dear oh dear.... good one!
