Changing front fork oil
#1
Hi All,


I keep hearing from you focers how replacing the fork oil with heavier oil makes a difference to the handling and so, when I bumped into my local mechanic in Asda earlier I asked him how long it would take.  He reckons an hour or so, but bonus, says he does private jobs and would be cheaper than at the garage...... BONUS!


His question that he wanted me to ask you guys was, if we are replacing with 15W (I think that's what you guys say to replace it with) what air gap do you leave in the fork?


Oh and one more question I think I know the answer, but is it ok to do this mod before changing the rear shock?  That's my next treat at some point.


Cheers
