Fork Seals - 750
« on: September 16, 2020, 11:49:25 PM »
Forgive me... did indeed do a quick search but didn’t immediately find what I’m after.

Q - can we confirm that the (new) double lipped fork seals are inserted ‘closed side up’? (I ask coz interestingly the old ones were open side up (ie the spring exposed) which might just explain why they’ve weeped ever since owning the bike... 🙁)

Ta muchly...

... thanks Julie, confirms what I thought. A big plus in that it may solve the ongoing weep...
