Front Fork Leaking Oil
Alright, I searched the threads for this a little bit and didn't find what i was looking for cause i really dont know whats going on. But yesterday I noticed that my front right fork is leaking oil, badly. I think its from wheelies, which im not going to do anymore.... or maybe from hard braking at my last race, not for sure which. I don't wanna take it to Honda b/c thats gonna cost a lot, but it is a last resort. Does anybody if its a gasket or seal or something that I can replace myself? Any suggestions woud help, thanks.

Yeah man simple.
The seals and dust covers will cost you maybe $30 total. Replacing them is simple if you've got basic tools and a way to lift the front off the ground (without forks!). If you're racing I'm assuming you should have access to these.
I'm gonna find a video link of someone doing it - very simple, inverted forks are easiest!

there is a how to in the How To forum for rebuilding forks. Using it I rebuilt my forks in about 30 minutes each, once off the bike. I replaced my springs, bushings, seals and dust seals. Its A LOT easier than most people think to redo your forks.
