Front Fork Cap F Mark

[JEZZAIRONBRIDGE]

New to forum.
Recent purchase of 400/4.
Forks need investigation as leaking Oil from bottom.
Last owner replaced Stanchions.
Does the "F" marking to the Front Lower Fork Caps have any significance at all?

F means front so make sure you have them on the correct way round and follow the manual when doing the bolts up and torque to the correct setting👍.
Similar to tgd handlebar clamps if you take them off for any reason, the have a dot that faces the back. When you do these up you tighten the front bolts first.

There is a bulletin about this in ashs dropbox

Many thanks for advice.
Much appreciated.
Believe Fork Oil loss due to the re use of Copper Washers.
Ordered replacements now.
Thanks again.
