Posted October 26, 200816 yr The fork seals need doing on my 1996 XV750. The haynes manual says that all XVs after 1984 require a press & special tools to tackle this job and work should be undertaken by a yamaha dealer. I have changed seals on many Jap bikes before, by undoing the allen bolt that holds the slider into the bootom leg, and then using the "slide hammer" technique to separate the two & access the seal. This is usually detailed in the Haynes manuals so I am a little concened about their comments for the XV forks. Is there something different about XV forks! Has anybody out there tackled this job on a 1990's XV750? thanks
