Considering adding fork oil drain plugs. Anyone have some advice on how, or why, to do it?
....type of plugs used? I thought about ordering plugs for an older model Honda, drilling and tapping the NT fork lowers....done. Or am I overlooking a better plug?
....where best to safely drill to add drain plugs? (I know, the bottom!) Pictures of yours may help.
I'm not completely sold on adding the plugs. Removing the forks is a small hassle if there is huge advantage to changing the fork oil that way. I'm riding 10-12,000 miles/year....so I'm thinking of changing the fork oil every 2 years. Advice on fork oil change interval?
Type of fork oil to use? I am not an aggressive rider, rarely go >70 mph, me & fully loaded gear go about 200 lbs, and have no reason to turn the NT into an off road adventure ride.
