Here's how I determine fork oil level on the upside down Lifan forks:
Support the bike under the engine so front wheel is barely off the ground. Remove fork caps. Lower the front of the bike as low as it'll go which will push the dampeners (with fork caps attached) up. Pour ATF into the forks until the level is about 3" below the top. Raise the bike and screw on the fork caps. Done.
You can do the same thing with the fork tubes off the bike which you'll have to do anyway if you're going to drain the existing fork oil.
