Have you tried cleaning the seals to see if that stops the leaking? You can make one from something like milk jug plastic, but here's what I'm talking about: https://www.amazon.com/Motion-Pro-Seal- ... B0039LDF4A |

Cool. I haven't had any leak since I found out about the cleaning, so I haven't had a chance to try it. |

The late model EX forks are the bushing type forks, so they are a little more hateful. You have to install the seals (I have the special tool) with the forks completely assembled. Hopefully I can get them done today. |
