2000 Txt250 Forks Help

I have just removed the fork legs to drain clean refill with 5 weight oil. I have read they are the same as my beta 2003 with a spring in one and a damper in the other and have the volumes and measurements from the tops for oil.

When I get them apart I find a spring in both legs. They look the same. I can't seem to find any info on fluid volumes or much else either. Has anyone got any comments on why this is or where I may download a manual. This one has run so well I have left it alone. Just thought I should do a bit.

There's springs in both legs just one side has a damper too , and the adjustment is for high speed damping only on the damping side . Have you removed the seal collars or as it reads just drained the oil.The reason i ask is because one of the bushes was scored badly on mine when i pulled the tube out so replaced the set . If you want the oil level give Kev a mail at gas gas uk if you haven't found it on trials parts USA . Remember to go for a Metric measurement as American IMP and UK IMP are different.

You can also get an exploded printable parts fiche from GasGas UK's web site right now which will give you some help .

Eddie thanks for the link, very helpful, I will never get anything done reading this lot. :hyper:

Thanks Ted it all makes sense now, just expected it was the same as the Beta. I have only changed the oil for now as the seals are not leaking. I have seen what you mean now on a video via the link Eddie sent, I will look out for this next time, thanks again. Same in both legs on these by the looks. 300cc or ml. They said 7 weight - I have already bought 5 now.......
