quick summary
first thanks to all who played an input in the fork oil change.
I had no trouble getting both fork caps undone. neither were on actually tight at all
I checked my manual and it listed 200 mils per fork.
I decided to go 190 mils per fork just in case I still had residue inside the forks. although I did pump them several times......and the forks too!...LOL
a 10 mile test run resulted in a very good ride quality and it handled all the bumps with ease. I could actually sit on the seat and ride some rather than stand on the pegs.
overall I was well worth doing and I actually saved $$$ doing it
pretty bad really when you buy something new and its not up to standard on very poor attention to detail OR lets put in 140mil and save the 50 mils for another bike.
overall very happy with end results and in my case as I had a bad riding bike...its been highly successful venture.
if it hadn't i'd just tell you now - I wasted my time...but not the case here!
