That's about it after you remove the nacelle.

You can do it like this.

Remove the what???? nacelle??? speak english my friend

You mean the thingie that holds the head lamp right?

do i fill from the holes that the air lines are threaded in ?

 

Aw geez I should have thought of that. Remove the thinkamabob and pour the whatchmacallit into the thingies.

Is that better? :s

You have the air lines?
You don't need to remove anything. Get a mity vac and read that post I linked you to.

You remove the schrader valve in the air fill and use the mity vac on that and draw the fork oil into the drain screw hole with a fitting you make or fashion to attach a hose to and siphon in the oil into the leg. Very simple.

This is a mity vac available in most automotive stores.

 

Oh crap this sucks!!!!! I found that you have to go very very slow and let gravity and the air bubbles to get it in . Glad i have to only do this evry 20 thou

thanks for the help glider

I really did meet my wife at MY family reunion so I've got all the credentials

 

Oh BOY! Not going there

 

True story - I was at the reunion with some of my cousin's shooting Skeet and she walks up (friend of a female cousin) and asks if she could shoot, I offered her my shotgun to use and she replied that she had her own in her truck!! We married a year latter and have been together 26 years.
