Pro-Moly Leak Proof Fork Seals
If you are in the market for some fork seals do NOT... I MEAN DO NOT buy the pro-moly leak proof seals (which have a lifetime warrenty) [sm=smiley21.gif]. Now where do I start on how much I hate these cheap pieces of crap. I am a certified mechanic and have installed dozens of fork seals on dirt bikes and streetbikes. The last 3 bikes I did I used these amazing leak proof seals. The cr 125 and crf 450 leaked within 3 weeks (I can do about 1 year on stock seals). Then I put some on my cbr600 and they have seeped oil since they have been installed. Only 1 seal was leaking before I changed them, now both leak... not blown out but seep oil to much. And yes bushings and everything was in great shape and I taped the ridge so it didn't damage the seals installing them. These crappy seals have no spring on the inside like the stock ons do.... which is a horrible design for a seal. Anyone else try these pieces? and if you havn't don't even think about it.

Yea they say if they leak to send the seal in and they will inspect them... and if they are found defective they will send new ones for free. The only problem is I don't want another set of these pieces.

RE: Pro-Moly Leak Proof Fork Seals
I heard that the leak free seals will seep while sitting, but when you ride they "swell up" and do not leak. I have only heard crap about these leak free seals. I did seals and bushingson my yz250f a year and a half ago w/ stock seals and they do not leak. I now have to do seals on my 600......I just need to learn how to bring my wheelies down smooth....
