[QUOTE="TomInPA, post: 1243099, member: 21394"] It could just be the dust seal is contaminated. Certainly worth a try. I think you're dealing with fork oil given how much there is and that it's all over the forks and fairing. Another problem that probably led to this is that you're missing the debris shield cover (46 below). That keeps stones and debris from hitting the fork tubes which can scratch them, and let dirt get in the seals to begin with. It's part [URL="https://www.partzilla.com/parts/detail/yamaha/YP-4SV-2331G-00-00.html"]4SV-2331G-00-00[/URL] I copied your photo, and the cover is clearly missing and is what appears to be the source of your oil loss.
