Sorry if this has been mentioned before. I have tried to download the PDF file for a service manual but it comes back... HUMMMMM. can't find this file.
I want to drain the Right and Left front fork oil and need to know the amount to refill each. I remember it is different amounts but at 72 it's a little foggy. Can anyone help an "Old Man" LOL

Thank you for the info.
I asked Google how many ounces in
.616 pints, it told me 9.856 ounces.
.704 pints, it told me 11.26 ounces.

Those numbers don't sound right. Is that correct????

A pint is 16 ounces. Those numbers are correct.

Flybd5-
Thank you for your reply. Not familiar with Liters or converting thousands into ounces. Pints, quarts, gallons, OK with those also.
I seem to forget that working on the internet is worldwide. At times, WOW.

Again, thanks for the help.
