[QUOTE="kx125412, post: 1211077, member: 68341"] Try the film negative trick, it saved me fork seals. Most often than not fork seals don't need to be replaced they simply have dirt stuck up in there. Pop the dust seal off and spray some brake clean or something up around there to get rid of all the oily dirt and gunk. Once that's all clean take a film negative, pretend you're screwing it into the fork and you'll feel it bottom out and keep the film turning in the same direction and back it out. There will be dirt and gunk on the end. Do this a few times and it should clean it out. I was sitting and my shop and actually watching the oil run down my fork leg and drip onto the floor. I did this trick and there was a spec of sand that was holding the oil seal open. Its a good idea to replaced oil in both forks too. [/QUOTE]
