Fork Seals
Posted: Mon Apr 25, 2005 2:57 pm
So yesterday I decided to change my fork seals. It was a little unnerving since some people suggested that this was not a task well suited to beginner, and since this was my first actual work done on a motorcycle I assumed I was a beginner.
Nonetheless I decided to undertake it. I would say that it took some patiance and a whole lot of understanding my haynes manuel, but everything went well, and I no longer have that aweful stuff leaking all over my forks. I did have some problems with rusted parts not wanting to come out, but with a little patience and dedication it went apart and back together again.
So thats just a little encouragement to those doing thiers for the first time. Though Im sure that not all would have such a good experience, so take it easy.
