do not compress the fork springs you must take the pressure off the springs by jacking up front end of the bic this will take some of the pressure off but be careful when removing the fork bolts there will still be some spring pressure there. drain all oil out of the shocks then you have to find out the right amount of oil and grade you need for your specific bic. hope this helps

Well, when you take off the fork make sure you empty it first before anything else then make sure that the fork pressure spring is released before changing the seals. The fork oil amount should be no more than 200 cc or no less than 190 cc

According to my Suzuki service manual it states that the fork oil capacity is 11.4 U.S. oz. It also says that you must use SUZUKI Fork oil # 10. John

Having removed the forks, you will need to undo the lower damper bolt first, this is located on the recess inside the fork where. The spindle goes through, this will then alow you to remove the oil from the fork, and the leg will then be free from the stancion moving freely down, if the fork doesnot come apart, you will have to remove the retaining clip from the seal and pull the fork apart sliding the fork leg up the stancion and sharply pulling down on it to pull the seal out, repeat this till theseal comes out, (tip) undo the fork top nut while the forks are still fitted to the bike.
