Remove the air cap valve cover from the top right fork and by doing so the air pressure inside the fork will fall to zero. dump the pressure just like letting air out of a tire. Next, remove the hose between the front forks. At this point you can make things easier by placing a floor jack on wheels under the bike to lift the front wheel off the ground but loosen the main front fork caps before you jack the bike up. Jacking the bike up means less spring pressure inside the forks, so it will be easier to remove the caps. Now remove the fork caps from both forks but be careful as the spring may shoot out. Get a vessel to put under the forks and drain off all fluid. Lower the bike to floor or ground level. Restore drain plugs into their original position. Next, add 10.2oz of ATF brake fluid to each fork. Put the air caps on and tighten them well. Reinstall hose between front forks. Finally, you must pressurize the forks. Do this with an air pump such as is commonly found at gas stations or with a manual pump that has an air gauge. The correct pressure for each fork is 10-16 psi, according to how stiff you want the forks to be.

Can you put a front fork assembly form an 1985 Honda 200X ATC on to an 1984 Honda 110 ATC?

It is unlikely that the front fork assembly from a 1985 Honda 200X ATC will fit directly onto a 1984 Honda 110 ATC. ATC models have different frame dimensions and component designs across model years, leading to variations in mounting points and compatibility. It is recommended to find a front fork assembly specifically designed for the 1984 Honda 110 ATC for proper fit and function.
