fork seals

[matt600rr]

i have to change the front fork seals of my cr 125. is this a hard task,should i take it to the shop, or could anyone here show me how to do it?

It can be difficult and confusing. The MOST important part is to figure out WHY the seal went out. Seals should last a LONG time. You hear of guys saying "This is the 4th set I have put in this year". When you have the tube apart, run a piece of cotton ball down it, anything, repeat, ANYTHING that snags it needs to be sanded down.

I just found a fork seal leaking on my zx-11. I may call him too if that's alright. Mine probably went out due to age...the bike has been sitting most of its life.

but I have another question...should I do both at the same time? because only the left one is leaking.

If it is due to age, I would recommend both.

Depending on the year of your CR they could be twin chambers
and they will require specialty tools that very few will have.
