[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Avoid using ATF transmission fluid. This can be too light for most heavy big twins despite having similar chemical qualities. Fork lubricants, whether from the dealer or synthetic is not so expensive as to use ATF in it's place. Only use new fork lubricant from a sealed container. Unused portions should be kept air tight and stored in a cool dry place.
ALSO:
In this video there is no mention about removing the locking rings above the fork seals in the lower leg and it appears as if you just pull the lower leg off the tube. The ring must be removed and the 6 MM bolt in the bottom in order to remove the fork slider.
