Re: Fork seal weeping oil......
Yes and no then a yes and yes
my seals went just before the TT last year I tried the pressure and checked the levels as it was only a light smearing, (I had just done a bike awareness day with loads of emergency breaking) but had to change the seals but in there favour I dont know how old they were 2 weeks ago at the MOT the tester said your fork seals are leaking, Bugger not again but I ignored it for the week and was going to sort them out now they are dry again, I do keep saying I will fit gaiters another on a long list of todo's |

Re: Fork seal weeping oil......
Thanks SH, the loosening of the pressure release screws seems to have worked, no more leaks/weeping. Have ordered new seals and oil anyway as they'll be free.
