Does anybody know how much oil a set of 09 Pikes require in the damper?

My other/older Pikes required between 130-140ml

When I took the oil out of these ones, I measured 175ml .. and some was also spilt.
I cannot seem to find any reference to newer pikes requiring more than the 140ml??

Any help please!

120/125 depending on how stiff you want the lock out, if you've put the 140ml in the forks make sure you bleed it out the rebound damper before refilling.
