pre or post98?
pre98 take the bolts out on the backside of the legs where the axle goes through. drain and refill.
post98 - lift and support bike, take forks off, take top of forks off, turn upside down, drain, refill.

There's a good write-up on fork R&R by Black_peter around here somewhere...

You don't have to take the forks off and turn them upside down to drain a post 98. You do have to remove the axle and then the bottom retainer bolt for the slide.
The level can be set to preference but I used to like 4.5 inches with the forks collapsed and springs in the tubes. I found using an oil dipstick from my car worked well for checking levels.Comment
