    I don't know how i did it, but i was ridding at a private track today and noticed i was leaking oil from one of my front forks. Is it just a seal or what? Also how hard is it to put a new seal on, i don't like spending the money to have them do it at the dealership.

    yeah, sounds like just a seal. one of my forks was leaking big time, just replaced the fork seal last week and put new oil in as well. its not to difficult to do. http://crfsonly.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11588

    AS has a post on a 230 fork seal replacement

    http://www.crfsonly.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20466&highlight=fork+kit

    What I wonder is what else you should replace besides the seals? Like the Backup Ring, Bush Slider, Oil Seal Stopper Ring etc.

    Not too many options that I found on this. MSR, Moose or OEM. Anyone know of any kits for these?

    Thx
