Fork Seal Replacement for '85R
OK...so how difficult is it to install new fork seals on a 250R? I am no "Mr. Goodwrench" but can follow directions in a manual pretty well... In any case I bought the parts when I noticed that my shop wanted $200 for the job?
Thoughts or advise prior to my starting would be GREAT Chowder

it's not bad but,,, i always order new bolts and washers that are on the bottom of the fork legs. you might get them out this time ok but next time if that thing strips you'll know the meaning of a bad day. also definately leave the fork springs in when removing this bolt to load the piston,and i use an impact gun with the whatever size allen it is to break the loctite seal on the bolt. there is a pvc pipe size that u can use for driving the new seal in i can't remember the size now.
you'll need some pretty beefy 45-90 deg snap ring pliers also mark
