Old film negative trick

2 days before leaving for RAA West my left fork seal started leaking pretty bad. Puff out of nowhere. I have a set of fork seals on hand but really 2 days before departure. Buggers. I purchased a Sealmate a while back but could not find it to save my life. So I cut up a yogurt cup since it was small and very rounded. Worked very well. Went around 5 or 6 times on each fork. Pulled it out to wipe it clean after each pass. Plenty of fork oil oozed out but I just kept a cloth rag wrapped around the tube. Some of you may have noticed my "Ninja Bandannas" I had on my fork tubes at RAA. That is why they were there. In case the leak came back. Just want to report no leaks at all so far.
Your a bloody trend setter aren't you mate?
Bandannas be buggered, they must be 'Dog Saliva Towels'.
There will be a virus like craze amongst cruisers to do this now and buy an accessory dog to match the pair on the forks. 😉 :whitstling: :cool: :cool::cool::roll::roll::roll::roll::roll:

That is my dog Grub in his prime modelling days - now he just gets pet insurance ad offers! 😉 :whitstling: :whitstling:
