Fork Seals
Anyone done them? I was going to replace mine when I installed the Traxxion emulators and springs. The darn Suzuki parts guide is confusing. Do I just need the actual oil seals? I think my dust covers are still in good shape. I'll probably just call a dealer and ask them what parts I need to do the seals. I also thinking about taking the forks off and just dropping them off somewhere and tell them to replace the seals after I remove them and install all the new (used) Traxxion parts. I'm just afraid I'll run into the same crap at a dealer that they won't install them if I drop a used kit off to have them install everything start to finish.

Miles, have you been reading some Chinese manual for replacing fork seals?milesmiles wrote:I've done them. Do them all at once and of you have them means upgrade
"If having the means of upgrading makes very happy seals the forks and rebound better."

Re: Fork Seals
Well, I pulled the forks this weekend so the bike is sitting on a front stand at home. Now I just have to find the time to drop them off at Cycle Werkz.
