Of course, you can fill fhe oil from the top- I did this, as I chaged to WP
springs & oil. My problem was to remove the old oil, because there was no
screw, where it was supposed to (and described in the original Honda repair
manual :o(( ) !!!
I managed this finaly opening  the lower bearing, moving the fork up and
down....

Good luck !
