Changed fork seals, fork bleeding question..

[Matchless]

I'll check the spring length and compare. 650G forks did have a small spring up top, 850's and 1000's did not.. according to the fiche. does anyone have a set of 850 or 1000 forks handy that they could measure the length of the top spacer for me?
Thanks
Nate

Nate,
Mine is out at the moment and measures 77mm x 27mm.

I did put about 7lbs of air in each fork and that made it stiffer.

They came from the factory with 7psi but you can go as high as 11max. But sounds like the group has led you to having the wrong springs in there.

UPDATE!! I got the bike back on the road last night and the forks feel fine if not a little stiff with the 1" spacers I put in and fluid level set to 140mm. They did feel really mushy sitting still and I was worried about bottoming out under hard braking but everything is perfect. Thanks for all the help guys!

Glad you got it sorted out. You can even play around with the oil weights now 5W to 20W as well as the airpressure.
