Good idea for the short term, but I think I'd rather have the seals done and get the mechanic to clean out the guts and have a look at how much wear has happened in the 70,000 km. that the forks have done. What happens after that will be on the back burner for now, but at least I'll know where I stand. :huh2:

There won't be any wear to speak of at that mileage. They use teflon coated bearings etc which are cheap to buy anyway if you need them. Just check the sliders for stone damage to the chrome. Thats what takes out the seals.

Removing the lower bracket. Hard work but not necessary for a seal change but required for re chroming the sliders.
