ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for filling motorcycle front forks comprising, a horizontally planar platform for positioning proximate a motorcycle front fork. Mounted upon the platform are a tubular, vertically adjustable dipstick, a hand pump and a reservoir. The dipstick is vertically adjusted to the correct level of fork fluid in the reservoir. The front fork is then overfilled with fork fluid. Excess fork fluid is then pumped out of the fork by the hand pump into the reservoir. Flow of fork fluid automatically ceases when the correct level of fork fluid is attained because the end of the dipstick will then be above the level of fork fluid in the motorcycle front fork.
