Post by: Fabulous on September 11, 2013, 11:49:16 am

Just got the lower legs back from the chromers on my 88 250 gs. I was wondering the fork oil capacity of each leg.
Thanks in advance

 you have the early black ones you will need a length of welding rod to insert  into the valve as they lock while filling and you cant fill them without it . its  150 mm from top was normal fully compressed we did come to 140 mm sae 5-7
