May I suggest putting seals on inner tube first in order of dust seal, lock ring, oil seal and washer. I find that added security that fork will not leak due to damaged seals.

Hi Harry, I normally do it that way, not sure why I took the more awkward route this time round lol

Nice and very informative. As always! Can you point mere towards the tools used to do the fork service ?

Hi Tobias, I got most of the tools I use for suspension from here when I did my suspension courses. www.reactivesuspension.com/

Great video as always !!! Only one doubt: why didn't you close the fork cap to the tightening torque, not needed? What tool did you use for the cap? What paper did you polish the stem with? Ok ... there are three questions ... :D

@DesmoWerx

Hi Teo, Cap is only done up to 10nm which is not much more that gentle force, I used a pin wrench (similar to angle grinder disc tool) this time but I also have a cap socket for the ohlins. I used an 800 grit wet and dry paper to clean the stanchion.

Olá,eu tenho uma Ducati Monsters 1100s ano 2010,e a mesma suspensão que você arrumou

Hey Nellie, Thanks for the video and all the others. They are super informative for us DIYers. I serviced my forks with your instructions but my compression damp8ning now has 35 clicks on both legs and I cannot understand why or if thats what it should be. My bike is 2012 ducati streetfighter 1098s. Any suggestions will be appreciated, sir. Thabk you and please keep up with great videos.

I am no expert, as I just recently did my forks for the first time… but on assembly, it seems an easy mistake to make is to not fully seat the cap onto the damping rod. In this video, I believe he uses a notched plate to hold the spring compressed against the lock nut (fully threaded down). If you don’t do this, the cap is going to mate to the top of the spring retainer before it is fully seated on the damping rod. It seems this would create a gap between the adjuster and the damping rod, causing more clicks to get into the adjustment?

@DesmoWerx

7 ай бұрын

If they are both 35 clicks then thats likely the adjustment range on your forks, I don't have any data in my service manuals or service sheets that tell me the full range/number of clicks. I was always taught work from fully closed when setting them up so never counted fully out, the manual guides the same as well. As I don't have one in the workshop now I cannot check to see what I have as a range. Sorry I cannot be more help.

Es la misma suspension que trae la scrambler 1100 sport 2019? Tengo que hacer el cambio de sellos. Y queria saber si lleva la misma cantidad de aceite. No encuentro el manual especifico de la misma . Gracias.

Great video, can I ask how you identify the model of Ohlins fork you have?

@DesmoWerx

8 ай бұрын

They are usually stamped on the bottom of the fork leg, either at the very bottom or on the lower face of the caliper mount.

So how much oil did you use per forkleg? 380 ml? What type of oil? 5W Motul?

For progressively wound coils is there a correct orientation?

@DesmoWerx

3 жыл бұрын

Hi James, it does not matter which way they are orientated.

Gday mate, my manual says 155cc by volume and doesn’t mention anything about 155mm. How did you get the info for measuring 155mm. Cheers Steve.

@DesmoWerx

Ай бұрын

Its on the Ohlins service card for the FG5110 fork. Use 400 cm3 of oil with an air gap of 155mm

what is the weight of the oil? 7.5W?

If I want to replace the oil in my 996 forks, are oil and dust seals the only parts I need to replace?

@DesmoWerx

Жыл бұрын

Hi Harry if just doing an oil change you can get away with just the oil and dust seals. Personally I would check the bushes are not excessively worn as if they are then you might as well replace at the same time 😊

How come there is no bushing at the top of the stanchion? Is the bushing in the slider extra long to compensate for no bushing at the top of the stanchion?

@DesmoWerx

Bushes are in the outer tube only for the Ohlins forks. Not much different in size.

I don't know the mileage on the forks, but I was wondering why you didn't change the inner and outer bushings while you were in there?

Hi Michael, there is no wear showing on the bushes, the bike has only done just over 3500 miles in total, and only about 700 of that in my ownership, they may have been replaced before I got the bike as they look pristine.

Is it the same on 998s öhlins forks and other 916/748 series bikes with öhlins?

Shouldn't you pump the damper rod to fill it with oil before you measure with the syringe?

Hello, Love your videos. Thanks for all the info and time spent on them. I recently serviced my forks on my 012 ducati streetfighter 1098s. It was leaking from one leg and following your instructions, I was able to service them. However, my rebo7nd damping turns 30 some clicks. Does that sound right to you? If not, what do you think I did wrong that it now reads 35 clicks? Thanks again Gino
