[QUOTE="Northwoods Snowman, post: 1233150, member: 57571"] I doubt the PO did, but I've railed on it a few times enough to get the front end up; though I don't think I've lifted it more than an inch, or two at most because it doesn't stay up for more than half a second. Maybe you're on to something. I noticed today on the way home from work I've pumped more fluid out than I thought because I've lost much of my damping. I think the FJR is going on bed rest until I can pull the forks off and service them. I've tried the sealmate trick on my dirt bikes and never had much luck, more of a temporary bandaid in my experience. I just assume fix them right. I just like to know why stuff fails so I can prevent it. [/QUOTE]
