If you havn't already guessed guys n gals, I've blown a seal!
Rode over to a mate's for lunch yesterday and while stopped at a set of lights happened to peak down and spot a smear of oil on the chrome slider. I had a look when I stopped for lunch. It's only just started to go with only an oily residue starting to creap down the fork leg about an inch. No oil flow as yet! So cool.
The legs are a little scuffed up to, so I am thinking it will need new fork bushes as well. I s'pose with 70,000k's somethings are bound to wear out. 50,000 easy K's then 20,000 at a good flogging has taken it's toll!
I have booked it in with Tm performance (Trevor Manly, the guy who does all my race stuff) and am taking the legs up to broadford on Sunday to give him, and he is going to do them Monday or Tuesday for me.
While the forks are off, I might even do the head bearings just for sport! Murphy's law would be that they would go in 1000k's if I didn't change them while it was apart!!!!
