Concussion Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 Last time I did this a measured how much oil came out of the forks, but obviously that's not going to work here. Unless someone here knows the exact amount for those forks, I'd look in the manual if you have it, or look on the Marzocchi website?...that's not much help is it?

_skj0lsvik_ Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 You will probably find a user manual on marzocchi's website. If not, send'em an email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmt_oli Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 go to the website and find the user manual. the amount of oil is usually given as a height from the top of the stantion, when compressed with no springs if i remember correctly. At least thats how it was with my single crowns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 Yeah, it all depends on the individual fork. I know mine are supposed to have 150ml in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gianttrials Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 alternatively contact 'TF Tuned Shocks' for advice, they should be able to help and i believe they have a website so you should be able to e-mail them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 I'm pretty sure 2001 and older Monster forks take 0,5L of oil (250ml per stanchion). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
