Default Fork oil

My front suspension seems soft 2008 ultra 20k miles. Think fork rebuild is needed?

Changing fork oil isn't hard to do at all and it will more than likely cute your problems. There's several threads on here explaining how it's done. I use either Spectro or BelRay 10wt fork oil in mine. I've never used the ATF but it should work well too.

This is the thread I used as a guide when I changed my fork oil. His blow by blow is at post #23. It worked out fine for me.
