Hope someone can advise on this. While checking my air pressure and oil came out of the air valve. What's the cause and are the forks still fit to ride. The air pressure is holding up. Forks are 2014 SID solo air.

How much oil? You often get a little bit blow out. There shouldn't be loads in the air chamber anyway.

Ah, that's OK then. It just spat a bit out. I didn't realise the oil could get into the air chamber and I've never had it happen before.

It's not a case of "could", oil should be added to the chamber during each service

Yes there should be a small amount in there to help lubricate the seal on the piston. Nothing to worry about so long as it gets replaced when being serviced.
