    Fork seals

    There is a Tech Tip on TT under the suspension subheading that explains a possible fix for fork seals that are leaking due to contamination. Info might be valuable some day, especially to 97-99 owners! Dan

    Fork oil level limits, maintenance

    Hi, Is the oil level limit within 100 to 140 mm on a WP 4860MA Husaberg Enduro? Is changing oil again enough or shall I disassemble the fork? Should be something like 100 hours but the fork seems to work well. Regards,
