Raising oil level 2011 forks?
Need to bring my oil level from 130 to 110 in my 2011 zones. Anyone know what that would equal in cc's?
Thanks |

I don't know the internal diameter (id) of your shocks but can tell you how to work it out
Vol=pi x id x h So in cc that would be 3.14 x id (in cm) x 2cm

Les at LTR gave me that info for the 50mm Zokes on my Husky so I bet he could tell you what you need to know.

about 100cc per leg I reckon. The volume should be pi x id x id x h / 4, remember area is (pi x id^2) /4 or pi x ir^2. Hope this helps.

I would just add 20cc at a time in each leg with a syringe via the bleed screw until it feels good and isn't bottoming out.

I was thinking it was about 13cc equals about 10mm in oil level but I wouldn't swear to it.

Geez, I guess I should have stayed awake in math class after all.

You will also have to account for the volume of the inner tube wall and damper rod spring guide to be totally accurate in relating a volume to an oil level change as done on the bench.

As for deducting spring and push rod, isn't the oil height measured with all of this removed? So all you need to do is to do the calc, get a cc syringe and add through the bleed hole
