Hey Guys,

I have a 2000 buell M2 and I am replacing the fork seals and not sure what the correct ounces is to fill the forks back up.

Thanks,

Drain the old oil out ,and put the same amount back, as long as it hasn't leaked all the oil out.

The service manual will tell you. Best advice: get one.

Is it the standard M2 or the M2L? Also you have to measure fluid level to the top of the tube. Standard is 4.25" to the top.

It is the standard M2. The guy at the shop wanted to know how many ounces they take. He said that fluid can disipate and measuring what is in the forks can be inaccurate.
