[QUOTE="smofpls, post: 1275814, member: 43303"] I have an 86' kdx200 that has shallow chips on one of the forks, and leaks fluid. Is there something I can do to make the surface smooth and flush? I'm not sure if the indentations are causing the leak. I read in the archives, how someone used film negatives to clear a fork seal. How does one do this, wrap it once or twice around the tubes and pump the front forks up and down to dislodge dirt? Also it seems to run well for all I know. Pulls strongly in short bursts while on throttle throughout the gears. Brrrp, Brrrp, Brrrp. Revving it stationary there is slight exhaust smoke coming from the right front of the cylinder head. It seems to be in the head gasket area. How difficult is it to do a top end on this oldie, should I and will I need special tools? I have never taken apart a steering stem, maybe the bearings need repacking and tightening? Will I be able to find parts? This site is terrific and I am taking my time skimming over the hundreds of threads. Any responses will be greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
