Just want to verify with some of you guys that have done this several times but, Reading through my manual a 1990 600 when full, the oil level measured with the fork compressed is 3.93 inches from the top of the fork. Can anybody verify this for me?

Yeah, this manual (not the one that I have a home) shows this picture...
I'm think my other manual says to measure from the very top of the fork, not the way this one shows (although, that top part may be part of the tool they made). Now I'm even more confused. After I wrote "uncompressed" I remembered that it was compressed. I forgot how scary it was when the front dropped down from the jack. The stance looked cool though

I've got muscle memory down pat for typing 25.4. I practically throw my hands at a keyboard or calculator and that comes up .

Got the new fork seals in today.... they are totally different from the springless versions I used last time. The quality is WAY better. I will never reccommend those springless pieces of crap to anyone. Anyway, seeing as how these are totally different, I don't know which way to put them in. Can any of you guys tell me which side faces toward the ground/bottom of the fork?Some people carry on
Some just stay right where they are
Our worlds divide
