Fork oil level
Posted: 05 Jul 2021 21:15
Hi all, sorry, it's another dreadful newbie question - I've done a reasonable amount of searching, but I'm not sure that I've found the right answer! While I've got the front wheel out of the bike for a tyre change, I'm going to do the fork oil too - and looking in the Marzocchi manual in the downloads area, I *think* that each leg should take 220ml of oil - does that sound right? (If my measuring was correct, I reckon it's a 35mm fork tube and 140mm stroke - well, that's the only thing that comes close in the manual anyway!)
Or, is the level measured from the top of the fork tube with the spring removed? That's the way I've always done it before - and the owners manual makes reference to "150mm from the upper limit of the power rod" - does that mean 150mm from the top of the fork tube?
Thanks in advance,
