dombush Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 All having just replaced the fork seals on my 2007 i need to refill the oil and are looking for fill volumes. Searching the web i can find 2006 info... is 2007 the same?? also, there is some confusion about "refill after drain" volume and "from completely dry" volume. Getting to the point, does anyone have the correct 2007 oil volume information... or the air gap. Dom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slicks75 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Just changed fork seals on my bike(well 3 trials ago) and this is what i followed and it feels spot so i've copied it on for you to look at..... Below is an email from Ryan Young. Just make sure you get all the oil out of the cartrige side to get all the fresh oil in, and it didn't take 20 minutes, at most 5. There is a pdf file on Ryans' Sherco site containing this info, along with the other service files. The Ceriani forks are identical to the old Paioli except for the outer fork legs. Oil level on right leg: 60mm With forks at bottom Oil level on left leg: 110mm With forks at bottom and without spring Should be 370cc in right and 385cc in left.when doing this use the oil height measurements taken from the top of the forks with the forks at the bottom of there stroke and with the spring removed. The oil quantities are correct. The levels are correct. The problem is getting all the oil out of the fork on the cartridge side. You have to pump it for 20 minutes. Then when you put oil back in, pump for 20 minutes again, to get all the air out of the cartridge to verify level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
