New 185 dollar fuel line every 5K?



The "Seal Swipe" is piece of plastic IMFASTTOO referred to earlier. If the seal is dirty but not torn it should solve leak.
 
How about a little info about a seal swipe, where you get one and how to use it. Thanks

Here you go... check out this vid:


PS - I've done this on the bike easily enough. Like the guy in the video says, you don't have to remove the fork from the bike.

Just FYI - "Seal Mate" by Motion Pro is what I have.

I have used 35mm film strip or similar sized thickness plastic to clean fork seals. I remember seeing a video recently
on you tube I think.
 
You can cut an old credit card to do the exact same thing as the Seal Mate. Just push is under the fork seal and pull it all the way around so it cleans any gunk caught in there. Then pump the forks a bunch of time to set the seal. If it doesn't work, then it is new seal time.
 

Thanks guys for all the input....I assume if you don't have to remove the forks to replace it you would have to pull the front tire to get it over? Man... can imagine losing one of these at 18K miles.....

Have a great Sunday..I am going flying in the Lightning...it's safe up there!
