Author Message   00green Posted on Tuesday, August 02, 2011 - 08:58 am:        I just had a fork seal blow out and need the bike as transportation. I have a manual on order but can't wait until it arrives to replace my seals. Can some one tell me the weight and quantity of oil to use. Also if instructions are available for seal replacement it would be greatly appreciated. These are NOT USD forks. I've searched the postings already but have had no help. Thanks!!!!   Buell_bert Posted on Tuesday, August 02, 2011 - 10:52 pm:        2000 M2 uses HD type E fork oil (HD-99884-80) and 15.96 oz. 0r 4.25" from the top (3.15" to 4.92") depending on weight.   00green Posted on Tuesday, August 02, 2011 - 11:03 pm:        Is the 2000 an inverted fork?   Kilroy Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 07:17 am:        No - M2s did not have inverted forks from the factory (any model year) Kilroy   00green Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 08:55 am:        I didn't know that, thanks!   00green Posted on Sunday, August 07, 2011 - 05:23 pm:        Forks are apart, seals installed and I'm ready to reassemble. How do measure the fluid with the spring and other guts installed?   00green Posted on Sunday, August 07, 2011 - 05:35 pm:        Never mind, Now I remember. Remove the damper rod from the cap, install the damper rod and set the oil level!
