Also tore the forks down last night, but had to make some custom wrenches on the CNC to do it. The forks required a 49mm wrench and a 36mm hex that I didnt have

Now I going to need to find some KHL15-10 (KAYABA 01) or equivalent fork oil...I am not familiar with this kind of fork oil, does anyone know where I can buy it or an equivalent oil to replace it?
That oil is the same as Showa SS-7 and Pro-Circuit PC01, the just use different dye for each brand.
It's a bit different than standard 5wt fork oil, but any decent fork oil will work(Motul 5wt will be fine)
Thing is a friggen chick magnet

OK i'll bite,why is your brand new bike all torn down? I know you're doing suspension but what about all the rest?
They are all different levels. I just got my suspension back for my 2010 YZ250F from Factory Connection and the level was changed. It's measured in CC according to the sticker on my forks so I can't tell you what the oil level is.
I had my bike torn right down too when I first got it, but not quite THIS far!
I know they are all different, I have done a ton of sportbike forks, and they are generally in the 350-450ml range....What I meant is it typical for MX bikes to have roughly half the amount of oil as a sportbike fork...The 450 service manual calls for 198ml, compared to my ZX6R forks that are 427 +/- 2ml
Being used to sport bikes I was surprised when only a little oil came out
It's April. Get that bad boy together. Supermoto season will be here soon.
PS After looking at those pics Fastar1 posted I might have to trade my KTM in and go Green. LOL j/k
BTW, I'm super jealous that you have a CNC machine available like that!
In 2 weeks we will have a 3rd CNC machine, they are not designed to cut metal but they can easily. Its just hard to hold the parts as they dont have vises, and its messy as I have to lube the cutting manually and the oil makes a mess of my tables...And I have to clean the chips away....
