OK, so I won't have enough Maxima 20 wt fork oil to finish my other fork.
I'm sure I'm over analyzing this, but it bugs me that different brands have different viscosity and I really want to do this right, you know? I want any mistakes on the track to be MY farkups, not the bikes!
Here's the options I can think of:
1) Wait a week till traxxon mails me another liter (no local dealers have it - I called about 20 in the last 2 days)
2) Do what traxxon support suggested: just use all you can, and top off with any other brand 20 wt fork oil.
3) Do second fork with only Maxima fork oil, then level the two fork oil levels by removing some oil from the fork already completed and adding it to the other; dropping the level to, say 130mm (instead of spec'd 110mm)
4) Do number 3, but then top off both forks with brand B fork oil to 110mm (so they both have the same matching viscosity from the mixed fork oils)
5) Drain the fork already done, and do both forks with brand B fork oil
What say ye, court of wise old bike people???
Thanks for any advice...
