today i was riding my pitpro 138 an i was jumping an every time i landed i heard a thump noise from my forks
whats goin on??
no oil in them??
or is it some thing else

it sounded like they were bottoming out
 
so have you fixed it?? why was it doing it??
 
I dont have this problem for some reason.....and i was jumping large tabletops at parwan( i have bottomed out once but there was no downy and i landed on the front end)....the only problem i have is that my fork guards rub against my forks and leaves black marks which pisses me off............BUT for you problem i would try some heavier fork oil, that might fix it. When my forks are stuffed ill buy some fastaces ones of ebay, are they any good?

all the china bike USD forks do that
 
I had a problem like this, just make sure thet your front tyre doesnt hit your bash plate when it is compressed. Mine use to hit it when my forks went down and it made a thud noise...i just bent my bash plate backwards and its all good now.
 
and also that the back of ur front guard doesnt hit the oil cooler coz thats what myne done and it snapped
 
ok thanks guys so even if i change the oil in them it will still happen???
 
did it sound like a bit of a clunk? and if you hold the front brake on and push the bike backwards and forwards (on road not dirt) do you hear the same sound?

mine did that out of the box, had to tighten up the head stem bearings till there was no more play
