I am working and semi living in Carthage, Tx. right now and just got my bike up here last nite. This morning I spotted fork oil running down the right fork. Are there any good Valk mechanics in the east tx. area to replace the fork seals?? Also are there any Valk riders in this area?????

You can try the film strip method to see if it'll stop your leak. Try running some old film strip (old type camera) up under the dust seal and rotate it arround the tube to remove any dirt that might be keeping the seal  from working. I've alos done this with feeler guages but use the thinnest one you can get.  Smiley

a kit somewhere that you slid up there to clean the seal but can't recall where I was when I saw it.
