Hi Im Cat,

I bought my first bike a Yamaha last year second hand, forks were pitted, dad did his best to sort them but after returning from a ride yesterday there is oil leaking out them down onto the brake discs...not good!

new seals were fitted previously but forks must be wearing at them.

where can i get fork tubes, do i get new ones?? ebay? any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Welcome Cat " well its decision time ,, you can have them re chromed, or buy new ones, your pitted ones will bugger new seals , so you"l hav to decide,

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Glad you got the forks sorted. Forks can be re-chromed at places like this LINKY but a 55 plate that needs forks re-chromed is not good.
