Re: Fork oil change school me! 73 t500
I'm not a T500 man, but looking at the fiche I see it has the typical drain plugs at the fork bottoms. You remove those 2 phillips screws and pump the forks up and down to expel the old oil, I have no idea how to put oil in though 

I was born with nothing and still have most of it left.
