Fork Seals?
Hi all, my forks were leaking so i replaced my seals and dust seals, i fitted them back to the bike and the oil started leaking out of the forks at the top...is there meant to be a washer above and below the fork seal?? or what else could it be? Cheers

Re: Fork Seals?
Hi,
There should be the dust seal then a circlip, then the oil seal, then a washer and finaly the bush. Is the oil coming out the seal or the very top of the forks, have you got the correct amount of oil and the correct air gap? If you got to the maintenance section, on the second page, there are manuals for the gsxr and there are exploded views within this section!
