    I hope you took Mrs marks for a spin on the scrambler first, so she could understand why there's one parked in the garage/lounge/bedroom next week

    Just have to pull the forks to turn them upside-down to drain the oil.
    That's the hardest bit...

    Drop them in the fork and work the leg up and down a few times just to make sure the nylon ring dosn't bind on the fork inner at any point.
    A couple of DR owners have had it happen (the intiminator clunks down onto the damper rod once the spring overpowers it's stuckness) and have had to gap the nylon ring slightly...
