Hi All,

I am in a bit of a predicament here and not sure what to do.
I've just powdered fork lowers on my 08 Street Bob.
Just to be on a safe side, I've changed the fork seals when assembling forks back. I've followed the instructions outlined in a service manual precisely. I've used a little bit of grease on fork seals prior to driving them in. Also they did go in rally easy.

Now, I took my bike for it's first run and the oil is "spraying" out of fork seals. I am stunned. I have no idea what I've done wrong!!!
All seems to be assembled OK but the oil is leaking.

Any ideas? Any pitfalls that I might have overlooked?

Any advice would be much appreciated. I am going to pull forks apart again tonight, but what do I look for?

Thanks

Mate, not wanting to be a smart arse, but are you sure they went in the right way? Many a seal has been put in upside down. If it is spraying out then something is badly wrong. If not, then you must have damaged the seals....though you mentioned you were quite precise with following instructions. Hope this helps a little mate

It's all good Hound_Dog.
Appreciate any advice at the moment.
Will put them out tonight and re-check.

Cheers
