Hi thanks for your answers. So first the fork tubes are not damaged. Then about the oil quantity I sure I've put the right one 410 and 440ml, and had to mesure the height of the oil (I think it was 160mm) when fork is completely compressed, without springs inside. Then I add the springs (progressive springs from WIRT) and close the fork.
What was very very strange, is that the 2 inner 6 pan bolt on the top of the fork, were like half unscrewed after about 2000km! I saw it by chance and tightened them again, but I can't explain how it is possible that they were loose. Because I tighten them firmly when I did it the first time.
I know Joerg in person, he's living in Switzerland not so far from me, and I used mostly his weppage to prepare my bike for the trip. But the thing with the fork seals, is it's very very difficult to get the ring out, to access the seal, and we have quite some difficulties in taking this out, scratching a little the inner part of the fork. So I won't be able to do this alone with the tools I have with me.
I will try to order thoses.
Thanks
David
