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.

AS has a post on a 230 fork seal replacement

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
