I have a 2005 Yz250, I weigh 170 pounds and ride mostly harescrambles.
I just took the forks to my local Yamaha dealer for seals and a service and now I seem to have some problems with them. The forks are very harsh now and seem to be sagging/sticking 2-3" down into the stroke. They didnt do this before the service. I first thought I had the forks/wheel on wrong causing binding but I have since had the wheel off many many times. I used Jeremy's advice and did the brake trick to aline the forks and wheel but they are still doing the same thing. I am lost at this point as to what Im doing wrong or as to what they did wrong? I plan to take the bike back to the dealer asap but I just want to have some ideas before I go getting upset with them.
