Hey, time for the first oil change on my 66 rc2x....
I removed the fork from bike, removed knobs and loosened the top caps. Now I can compress the stanchions and see the springs and cartridges. How do I remove the top caps and springs- do I loosen the set screws in the sides of the top caps? Or is it like a Z1- compress springs, grab the red nuts on the damper cartridges and then un-thread top caps? Or maybe both techniques combined? I have no idea.
If anybody can get me started I'd appreciate it- otherwise I guess I'll wait till monday and call Marz.
PS, if you have oil level suggestions post 'em- otherwise I figured I'd match the current height since it felt great.
TIA!
