[QUOTE="ramair350, post: 69407, member: 22647"] My recently purchased 95 KX250 has a chronic fork leak problem. I've read numerous posts and articles on this subject, but I'm still baffled. I wanted to have the feel of fresh suspension, so I bought new springs (and man, they are stiff!), bushings, pistons, dust seals, and fork seal (all OEM). I had the same dealer rebuild the forks. The first time I went to ride, I hadn't even unloaded the bike and there was oil all over the truckbed from the left (disk-brake side) fork. I took that fork off and took it back to the dealer. I provided ANOTHER brand new OEM fork seal and dust seal. Once again, after riding for about 15-30 minutes, I noticed lots of oil leaking (so bad it coated down my front brake). One sidenote - the leaking fork had a little air-pressure buildup ... the other fork had absolutely no air pressure. The dealer said the tubes are straight and look good - no flaws at all. Should I keep pestering the dealer? Any recommendations? Thanks! ------------------ 1995 (fork leakin' & plug foulin') KX250 [/QUOTE]
