I have a 1984 R80RT and to change fork oil the Clymer manual says that for a 1984 remove the lower drain bolt and open the top fill bolt.
For earlier models Clymer says I would have to grind two flats on a socket, put the socket on a nut at the bottom, hold the socket with an open end wrench, and loosen/remove an allen bolt at the bottom for the oil to drain.
My forks are like the earlier models as described by Clymer. Does Clymer have it backwards or are my forks off of an older bike?
thanks.
