Jack up front to take pressure off front, remove callipers, remove mudguard, remove front wheel. Remove fairing infill's (to access pinch bolts. Before taking forks out release top nut - careful it's under pressure. Remove spacer, spring and spring seat. Keep each side separate don't inter mix. remove legs. undo bottom nut whilst either using the triumph tool in the top or your own fabricated hex nut on the end of a steel bar take out damper rod and spring. remove dust seal, cir clip using the stanchion as a drift take out the seal. when filling with oil do it with the stanchion fully depressed into the leg and remember NO spring. there is no specified oil quantity, you measure from the top of the stanchion I think on a trophy it is 113mm
I found it easier to remove the forks and take them to a shop to have the seals done.In doing this you are still saving a bucket load of money. Removal of the forks takes about an hour and a half and is relatively easy without any specialist tools. You only have to remove the top part of the fairing.
