jesster Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 My dad has a 2000 2.9 and he recently blew a set of fork seals. This is the second set of seals in the last year and we only ride 9 months of the year. They are really bad now. If he rides the bike it only takes about 1/2 hour of intermediate type riding to lose all the oil. Anybody else have this problem? Any suggestions to keep it from happening?

copemech Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Replace the seals and install the neoprene (wetsuit material) covers on the fork tube to keep the dirt out that eats up the seals. RYP and others carry them. ps-they also help protect the tubes from scratches! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
