Does it really say that?

This procedure is unlikely to get all of the old oil out of the cartridges.  Even if it did, the cartridges would need to be bled when the fork legs are refilled.  Furthermore, how would one know how much oil to put in?  I know it's a pain, but there is no substitute for disassembly.

Resistance is futile. You will be cartridged.

Yes. Written by the same character who translated instruction sheets during the 60s and 70s.

2525,

 

Getting ready to change my fork oil myself, I'll try to take as many

notes as possible for ya if ya havent already done it.

 

More importantly, a buddy of mine and myself have been dying

to ride the Dragon, ever since we watched "Bitten by the Dragon"

If we ever make it out there from Cali, hopefully this spring/summer,

I'll look you up.  You could give us the tour!!!  Thats got to great having

that road in your back yard.

 

Later, rubber side down,

Jedi,

 

Yes, please make good notes (and pics).

Let me know when you figure on being here- I'd be glad to show you guys around.

Sadly, the Dragon has been a bit over-run with idiot kids who insist on killing themselves (and don't mind wrecking the rest of us in the process), but if we can hit it on a weekday it will be ridable.

 

I may hit you up for the same thing, as I am looking into a west coast run towards the end of next summer.

 

Later,

Scott
