Thx Rich...I have a manual coming from EFB..
And go figure, I put the front end on tonight figurin I could fill it thru the top plugs....Oh well, I guess I can still pull the plugs out and colapse the fork with the front end and wheel already on it..

Hey Rich...
Does the manual say how much air pressure to put in the anti dive setup?
There seems like 2 filler spots...1 between the handlebars, and another on the pot like resevoir?....Hmmmm....Any input bro?

fork-nominal pressure is 5-15 psi, max 20 for increased anti-dive effect

accumulator(pot)- Nominal 20-30 psi. For increased resistence to bottoming during non-braking operation, the accumulator pressure can be increased to a maximum of 40 psi.
