Hi guys & gals.

Was out on a ride yesterday and discovered i had a right fork leg seal weeping oil.....

How hard is it to change the seals and refill with oil, and what oil is best ??

cheers

Don't know ! but bet the worst bit is getting fork out safely elevating front wheel so bike don't fall over.
Good luck mate.
