How much oil do you put in a mountain bike fork?

How do you measure fork oil?
The proper way to measure fork oil is take the springs out, collapse the forks all the way down, then measure how far the oil is down from the top of the fork. If you don’t have a manual, check with your dealer for the correct level down. I run my fork oil 130mm down from the top.
What happens if you put too much fork oil?
Too much oil can cause your forks go “on block”. For example if you break hard and hit a speed bump at the same time then worst case scenario would be that one or both of the slider end cap breaks out “which results in death or serious injury” (as the manual states).

How do I add oil to my mountain bike forks?
Do: Apply fork oil, RedRum, or Teflon-based lubrication to the upper tube area nearest to the dust seals. Cycle the fork a few times to circulate the lubricant. You can even gently pinch the dust seal, nearest to the upper tube, and add some lubrication (mentioned above) to the inside of the dust seal.
How do you change the front fork oil?
You also have to remove the front axle bolts, the front wheel, the front brakes, the speedometer attachment, etc. Then slide the forks out. There is no need to separate the upper fork from the lower fork unless you are looking to replace the oil seal. Then turn the fork upside down and let the oil drain out into a pan.
Why is my Honda CBR going through so many seals?
It will tell you in the service manual the height and weight of the oil. Why are you going through so many seals there must be an underlying problem for the seals to go so quickly. Ie- nick in the tube, worn bushings, improper install. Look closely for the fault. the air gap is what matters, sadly i dont have a service manual for a 1000RR here.

Hey, I’m not an expert on the zr-7 suspension but there are 2 different fork oil amounts, according to the service manual. BikeTechAz is correct (473ml +or- 4ml for each fork) if you do a full disassemble. For example, you remove the seals and separate the inner tube from the outer tube and pour out all the oil.
