Never had a 750 F2 Ken but I fitted the double sprung ones my 400/4 which were NOS OEM seals

3scs:
I fitted these Mick they’re slightly deeper than the Honda ones so if it is leaking from the outside it will have more chance of sealing

mickwinf:
ok i have just taken it apart and there are some gouges where the seal sits, as Bryan said possibly from removing the old seals, not me! so what do i do, try to fill with chemical metal and file down or use some sealant around the outer edge of the seal. Or get another fork bottom?

Bryanj:
Remove anysharp edges and fill with a silicone before new seal, if that dont work different slider

mickwinf:
Have received the new seal, genuine honda and it has the twin seals, which way is up?
