Hi, nice video.
Can I ask you where did you find the workshop manual? I need to fix a 1986-89 honda xl 600 rm but I can't find the manual. Thanks

[@wonkster1970]

Thanks for watching. I found the manual on a Honda forum.

Is it possible to add air into the forks? 0,5 bar?

[@wonkster1970]

It is possible if you use something like a bicycle pump. You don't want to put in too much air. Make sure that the forks are extended fully before putting air in.

shouldnt the progressive part if the spring be up?

[@wonkster1970]

The progressive part was facing down when I took them apart. Inverted forks may be different. Some people claim that it doesn't make a difference. Other people claim that they make more noise if they are put in the opposite direction. I never had an issue with them.
