How often should fork oil and shock service be done?

How often should fork oil and shock service be done? As a working rule: fork oil every 30-50 riding hours or annually for club riders; shock service every 50 hours or when damping feels dead. Sand riders halve that. Service intervals protect seals and valving – and fresh oil is the cheapest suspension upgrade there is. We stock seals, oils and complete graded suspension units by model.

The details, plainly

At Dirt Zaro Moto we answer this the same way in the workshop and in writing: buy for your actual machine and your actual riding, confirm fitment by brand, model and year before paying, and choose sellers who photograph and grade real stock in Australia. Every listing at our Perth warehouse follows that rule, and every order ships Australia-wide with tracking or collects free by appointment.

Good to know before you order

The fastest way to confirm fitment is the part finder on every page: choose bike brand, then model, then year, and the catalogue filters to parts pulled from that exact machine. Where a part suits a range of years or sibling models — for example many Kawasaki KX and KLX components sharing generations — we print the compatibility range in the description. Still unsure? Email info@dirtzaromoto.com your VIN, frame or engine number plus the part link; our parts team cross-references manufacturer diagrams the same business day and will tell you plainly if it does not fit. Ordering the wrong part wastes a week of your riding season, so we would rather check twice. Returns on mis-picked parts are accepted within 14 days in resellable condition.
