leaking fork seals
This is true! just make sure the fluid doesnt come in contact with your rotors...... or you will have to take them off the wheel and clean them extra extra extra good. that stuff seems like it never cleans off.
here was my temporary fork seal repair. a rag tightly zip ties around the fork seal. worked awsome!

C'mon Woody, that thangs got cartridge forks right? Take them bee-yatches off and put new bushings/seals on 'em. Afterwards you won't believe how much better they work.
Woods.. i think that rag ideas is good as a temperatry solution. Replacing a seal can cost you 25 bucks but the labor will kill your weekend.
You probably go the leaks from doing wheelies right?

its a track bike and I ride at Barber a lot which is really hard on the front suspension especially if you go over the curbing in the coaster (imagine going over a small speed bump @ 60mph every 1.5 minutes for 7 20 minute sessions per day over 15+ days)
I could do it myself but my suspension guy is gonna do it at road atlanta this weekend, its about time to have the valves and all checked out just in case
and as for the rag idea, not an option
leaking oil on the track is right up there with kicking your grandfather in the nuts @ a family reunion

So what class are you racing at Road Atlanta -- I'm most likely gonna miss it again but I do my best to catch it on the re-broadcast.
