Then slide the outter tube back over the inner fork leg and turn it upside so the top is on the floor (place a rag under it) and slide your outter fork bushing ,washer and fork seal into the slot

now take the two halfs of the old fork seal, turn it upside down and tap it in gently (must be evenly) once youve got it part way take a big flat end screwdriver and tap on the old fork seal


untill you can see with the circlip goes back into and push it in


then slide the dust seal back up and push it in


put the spring back in then the spring cap


grab your ratchet straps back out and set it up again to pull down the alloy spring cap so you can un thread the bolt and slide the tention rod back in and do the cap back up



now put 505ml of fork oil into the fork and screw the fork cap loosely back into the fork tube


throw it back into your triple tree and re tighten the fork cap back up to 35 newton meters of torque (or just snug tight)

and your done... if you've done it wright it you'll have no more leaks
i got quoted 250 to get his job done from a m/c shop so by doing it my self it cost me
$ 32 bucks for the fork seals
$ 28 for dust seals
$ 25 bucks for fork oil
and 10 bucks for the spring compresser
3 bucks for the long thread bolt (with the zx6r engine mount nut)
