Junk fork oil?

What kind of symptoms come through when it's time to change the fork oil I was getting a lot of small movement in the front end through turn 3/4, a bit of a jump in that new bump in 11 we talked about and a some pushing at 7 and 11A. I'm planning on freshening up the forks this weekend but wondering if these may be symptoms. On the brakes into three actually feels smoother though, I floated the back wheel a couple times and bringing it up and putting it back down felt smoother than normal. The most noticable issues I was having was the bike moving around coming through 3/4.

It should be changed every 3-4 race week ends any way. I'll bet your over due.

What's the service schedule on the rear?

120mm on the front is how you set it when you installed the valves and spacers correct?

Civility? This is NESR, almost every thread degenerates to nothing but ball busting and overt sarcasm.
