Fork Seals
« on: September 28, 2015, 02:11:29 PM »
Hi,

The fork seals on my K75S will need doing for the next MOT which is a month away. Any recommendations on good quality parts in the UK?

Cheers

Motobins would be good.

I second motobins, Not sure if they are the cheapest  but they have everything and get across to Dublin quickly so I don't intend on changing supplier :)

Also I just changed the fork seals last weekend, their seals work!

Just a thought. My seals were leaking badly and not that I can't replace fork seals but I find them a drag to do ,Soooo I bought one of those seal debris removal plastic tools for giggles and grins. Cost I think 5 dollars and change and worked GREAT. Best 5 dollars I've spent in some time. And saved a weekend day of work.
