I have a 01 ktm 520. Im wondering which one of the videos i should watch to rebuilt the forks on my bike. some one told me they didint think my forks are the cartrige style. they have a scew and then a big plastic knob on the top next to the scew.

@zobel929 - cartridge type all the way. Yours will be almost the same as the Kayaba we do in the video.

wasn't sure if I wanted to tackle fork seals. After seeing your video, I will. Great video. Thanks! How much would a shop charge, I wonder?

last time i checked they charge an hour and a half labor (most are $75 an hour), pluss parts and oil. You are looking at $150-200 pretty easily.

i have one more question,it does not say how much oil is needed in each tube.and will 1 liter be enough

between both forks, if you get all the old oil out, you will need a little over 1 liter. i would suggest buying 2 so you have enough.

Refer to your manual. The compression adjustments are found on the bottom of the forks (in = stiffer, out = softer). you can also raise your oil height a little. i don't have the specs. refer to your manual.
