OK, I have a shop manual butit doesn't really clarify. I read in a thread that the front forks take 638-640mL oil (i think).
With that said, I have had a fork seal leak for a while. The shop that found it said that it looked to them like it was pretty bad and has been leaking for some time (he noticed it when I was getting my Coastal's installed)
My question is this: Can I just open the fork cap and poor in oil to the correct level, top it off if you will??????
Side note: I think I fixed the leak by using the fork seal "tool" fix. So if it is done leaking I want to top it off. The
shops are charging $190-240
to do both tubes with me just taking the tubes up there off the bike. CRAZY TALK
Any help would be appreciated.
