Front fork oil
#2
The fork uses a cartridge design for the damping circuits. It's best to be able to either invert the tubes or disassemble the legs completely. I suppose that you might be able to get most of the oil out with a suitable 'needle' to get down into the depths and suck it out. It will help if you can cycle the damper rod to pump out any remains in the cartridge.

Just a large syringe and some long tubing. Didn't know if anybody has tried it before. I'll do it a few times over the next few days. Anyone who has been there, please chime in.

Just want to replace the oil for something more suitable for my weight (I'm bored). I'm not in a position to be able to do it right.

Using the wrong oil will not let the forks work properly.
You want to use different weight fork springs to adjust to the riders weight.

Would there be any benefit in replacing the fork oil or just leave it alone?

And it will get dirty from normal wear of the moving parts in the forks as well as minute amounts of dirt getting into the forks while riding.
Especially if you've been riding in muddy areas.
So it's good to change the fork oil on a regular schedule.
However you need to remove the forks on the KLX250 to effectively change the fork oil.
