Hello I just found this site good thing. I trying to change my fork oil on my 1984 Yamaha XT-250. On the bottom of the tube theres a hex plug and on the side a small phillips head screw. I tryed getting the hex out thought it was a plug! but it just seems to turn and not thread out! Both fork tubes are the same, I dont want to screw any thing up as I just got the bike and dont have a shop manual yet, Can some one please advise. Thank you :huh:

On the XT350 the drain is the small bolt/ screw on the rear at the bottom on the fork leg not the large hex on the underneath . hope this helps

Hi just to add to this thread.

Ive just recently stripped my XT350 down to the frame and the forks were leaking badly.

Ive put new seals and dust seals on, only thing is im not sure how much fork oil to use?

i could drain whats in , but they were pretty soft and didnt have much left in.

also has anyone fitted a spacer to the top of the springs to stiffen up the damping?

No manual yet, so am asking on here.. :D

Thanks
