Once you get the forks resealed, be more thoughtful of landing your wheelies.. now that you know what it'll cost you in the long run.
hint: use the rear brake rather than snapping the throttle closed.

I blew out a fork seal a couple of months ago. You need a fork seal driver, a spanner nut wrench, and two other specialized tools that are expensive. I tried to do the job myself and ran into problems. After realizing there were other specialized tools other than a seal driver I took the forks in.It doesn't pay to go and buy all that crap if your only gonna do the job once. If you have a front stand that will lift the bike up from the steering stem, you should be able to take those forks off yourself. You need a 6mm allen wrench. You might need to go and get some shorter length allen wrenches because pulling those bolts out by the triple clamp is pretty tight. You can get them at any hardware store. Good luck
