leaky fork seals.. help!
Posted: Mon Apr 22, 2002 7:11 pm
hey everyone,
I'm pulling my hair out over my fork seals. I have replaced them three
times and one side just sprung a leak the other day. I have used stock
seals and bought aftermarket seals, but they keep leaking. It always
takes about 4 months of riding and one side goes before the other with
no order. The tubes look great. No scrapes or warps. I change the oil
every time and it usually looks fairly clean. I do ride really rough
and bottom out just about every ride.
I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem. I can't stand replacing
the seals so often. I'm sure they look fine and don't want to take it
all apart. I wonder if I just fill it up with oil agian and see if it
will stay in. I wonder if the oil is only coming out when I bottom out
and I'm mistaking this for a leaky seal? Hmmn...
