Author Message   Dcmortalcoil Posted on Saturday, July 09, 2011 - 12:50 pm:        Can someone please look up in the manual (have not received one yet), what the fork oil level is for 2009 XB12Ss? Thanks.   Dcmortalcoil Posted on Sunday, July 10, 2011 - 06:47 pm:        Guess no one has a manual for 12SS.   Nvr2old Posted on Sunday, July 10, 2011 - 07:58 pm:        From the Manual: Recommended fork oil is type E. The fork spring should not be installed for this part of the procedure. With the fork fully collapsed fill the fork with oil until it reaches the threads on the outer tube. Thread retrieval tool onto end of damper rod assembly. While pumping outer tube up and down, be sure not to exceed the travel of the fork assembly. Pump the outer tube up and down approximately 6 inches 10 times. Collapse the fork again and once bubbling has stopped, pump the damping rod up and down its full stroke until consistent resistance is felt for the entire stroke. With fork completely collapsed, adjust fork oil level with front fork oil level gauge to the specified level below the top of the outer tube. For 2009 XB12Ss, level should be 4.65 in. or 118 mm below top of outer tube.   Dcmortalcoil Posted on Tuesday, July 12, 2011 - 11:34 am:        Thanks so much.
