My fork oil must be long overdue for a change, there doesn't seem to be any drain plugs so I guess they have to be removed and tipped upside down. Would that be correct? Has anyone done this before? Any Tips?

You are correct, do 1 at a time. You can get a service manual in downloads, explains it well. There may be a thread here on it if you do a search.

I have a printed Service Station Manual for the 1400's, you are welcome to have it just pay postage but that might be expensive considering where you are located. I no longer have my 1400, which I miss, so I no longer need it.

Thank you sir, as soon as I locate the centre stand I'll be good to go.

Thanks for the offer but as you say postage will probably be ridiculous. I'll get by using the PDF.
