1260 How Much For A Fork Seal Kit???

  1. Yes, last pair of Öhlins fork seals I bought for my 1200 Multistrada were £140 for the pair. Andy
     
  2. How I'm looking at it, is items 13, 18 & 19 which are the overhaul & seal kits @ £100, £91 & £72.

    Which although pricey doesn't strike me as too silly.
     
  3. You wouldn't really need the overhaul kit as an emergency backup, just the seal kit, then you'd have to find a place willing to do the job, if it's skyhook then it's a tank off job which will be half a days work.

  4. You are looking at the right page , but maybe not the right supplier ..... ?

    @GTmorgan makes a good point above ^^
    I can't see why you'd want to carry a full seal kit , just for emergencies .

    BTW - there's a recent thread about suppliers of fork seals on here ....

  5. I blew a fork seal in France a few years ago. Started riding back really carefully but after about 20 miles realised I could just ride normally (not sure if the skyhook helped the situation). I just wrapped a cloth around the fork leg to stop the oil getting into the discs.
    Got me all the way back to the UK

  6. Yea, maybe overkill and I was just thinking seals, not the whole lot. It was a slow day at the home office yesterday and I want an excuse to buy something for the bike :D
