Ive not done fork oil before.
Thanks all!

I believe changing your fork oil would be a good idea. I recommend the heavier, Mobil1 Synthetic ATF.
I suggest you remove the spring and pump the forks to remove
all the old fork oil. After removing
all the old fork oil, I recommend you fill each fork with 330 ml of new fork oil.
The job isn't hard, and I'm sure you will be glad with the results.
