I went to the dealer and saw that on the manual the oil level was set at 19,2 while here we always talk that changing the 2006 to 2007 springs the level should be 17,2 any coments about this before i get the springs and oil changed, by the way my dealer gave me free of charge 3 pint bottles of fork oil, don't have a clue why they did this (my bike hasen't seen the dealer for at least 2 years).

thanks to all the info i've recieved in the past, and i hope in the future too.

For one thing it's 172mm not 17,2. Here's a note from anonymous:

Ok, thought I’d set the record straight with some facts now.

2006 Ulysses:
Single Rate fork spring 39 lbs / in
Oil level 113 mm from top with fork fully compressed (+ or – a few mm ideally)

2007 Ulysses:
Triple Rate fork spring 39 lbs / inch up to 3 inches of travel
59 lbs / inch from 3 inches to 5.4 inches of travel
84 lbs / inch from 5.4 inches to 6.5 (bottomed)
Oil Level 172 mm from top with fork fully compressed (+ or – about 8 mm no problem)

This is from this thread:
