Jimod Posted July 17, 2010 Share #1 Posted July 17, 2010 G'day All I'm replacing the oil in the front forks of my '83 VR after fitting new seals on the anti-dives. I have progressives. What oil level do I use ? 5 inches from the top or 5 and a half inches ? Jim O'D........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted July 17, 2010 Share #2 Posted July 17, 2010 Someone will chime in for sure, but I thought it was 13 ounces in each fork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydoc_17 Posted July 17, 2010 Share #3 Posted July 17, 2010 (edited) According to the instructions sent with the springs, a physical measurement is the best. It is 5.5 inches. http://www.venturerider.org/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=2907&title=first-gen281983-1993-29-progressive-fork-springs-21&cat=6 Earl Edited July 17, 2010 by skydoc_17 CRAYON BROKE!
