the race tech springs seem like a quick fix and the price isnt too bad, that might have to happen in the next week

When you measured the fork oil level from the top of the inner fork tube how far from the top was the fork oil, and did you measure with the front wheel off the ground and the forks fully extended? Ed

i didnt measure the oil after putting it in, i measured it with a large plunger syringe to 310cc and injected it into the top then replaced the spring and put the cap on. the bike has no center stand and i dont have a jack for bikes, in order to get the front wheel off the ground during this procedure...options?

I have used them on personal and customer bikes many times and they are totally worth the money
