My front forks are riding pretty low. Is this generally an indication that they are running low on fork oil? 'Cause I know I have a slow leak (even after they were resealed).

Well I took the battery to Napa Auto Parts and had it load tested and it showed 12 volts normally and 7 volts under a load, so the battery isn't the problem.

I left my motorcycle for a little over a month (with gas stabilizer in it) and got back to find the cycle with starting problems. It wasn't starting after lots of turning over.
