I'm looking to replace my fork oil in my 07 KP. I've read here and other forums and my questions are pretty simple, I think.
I currently have 35k on the bike and the fork seals are not leaking so I'm going to opt for replacing the oil and not the seals. Mainly because I don't want to invest $150 in the kit right now.
Watching WitchDoctors video it appears to me that I could drain the forks by pulling the allen plug and cycling the fork up and down. I don't really even see the need to pull the guts out if I'm not replacing the seals...
Heck, I'm not sure I see a need to pull the forks off the bike if I have it on a jack... Am I missing something here?? I figure the worst case scenario I have to replace the seals later and I'm out $15-$20 for fork oil...
Your 2 cents please...
