Title: It465 fork oil/ Air pressure
Post by: Alisdair on February 17, 2014, 12:07:33 am
Need to replace the fork seals on my IT465, just wondering what oil and air pressure others are using.

I weigh around 80kgs, mainly bush riding.

Thinking 10 or 15w but I am interested to know what others are using.

15 wt oil 120mm from the top with legs collapsed & springs out. NO air pressure. Just try it and add or extract 10mm at a time & test again.

Also try 10 wt in one leg and 15 in the other. Trial & error but trust me it's worth it in the end. Buy the biggest syringe you an get for extracting if need be.
