on the Pasos the front forks have air valves up top, I think :dunno: approx 15 years ago I put approx 5psi air pressure and never checked them since, does anybody know if any pressure or what pressure should be put in there :?:

No pressure at all.
the less pressure, the better the fork respons.
the legs suck in air by them selves, and the pressure needs to be relieved by applying the valves every now and than.
