The KYB PSF1 fork does have air in both forks... Using a blow-off system is somewhat complicated as well, as the air pressure rises and the fork compresses through its range. Meaning the blow-off pressure would need to be based upon the pressure when the fork bottoms out.
The forks don't need a blow-off system. All they need is a properly engineered expansion bladder.

Easy, right? Grinning
