don't know the answer to your question, but i would add that the tech overfilled mine on the 20K check up and now it is constantly draining off the left fork and spitting back at me, the floor board and the cowbell...so word to the wise...

Huh? So you've checked to see they were overfilled by the tech, or are you just guessing 'cause it's leaking and you think that's why it's pissing fluid out? It sounds to me the seal is gone on the left leg. If it were overfilled an appreciable amount I'd think you'd see some indication of hydraulic lock right away.
