[QUOTE="92XJXJWHEELER, post: 1460292, member: 99629"] I have an 04. New to me. About 2500 miles. My. When I bought the bike one of the first things I did was crank those damping knobs way down they were cranked all the way out and I then did notice over the course of a sometime during my first week that I had oil coming out of those things which are an unserviceable part. I have everything to rebuild the forks along with some new springs and I will do that when it cools off and see if there's some o-ring to replace on the damping and adjustment but it no longer leaks .If I make an adjustment it may leak for a day or two and then stop. Possibly the previous owner overfilled them ,again I will address all that when I rebuild them. What I'm getting at is crank crank the damping adjustment rods in and out of time or two ride it around wipe it down see if that might do it for you it did it for me. Or maybe it is your seal that's an easy job itself. [/QUOTE]
