Default Did I put in to much fork oil?

I change out my fork springs to progressive lowered springs the manual said to put in 328 ml. Then use a special tool to get the oil level at 5.24 inch from the top of the fork tube to the top of the oil. Since I do not have this tool I use a ruler to check the distance. The oil was a little low I had to add about 25 ml to each fork. Does this sound about right I have never done this before and I do not want to screw anything up.

If you did it with the fork compresssed and the spring out then you did it correctly!

Call a dealer and see what they say. My dealer is always open to helping me out.
