Ok so as some of you know I have "acquired" a couple of Suzuki bikes from my local bike shop, will not go into the whole story but they both needed the fork seals doing, not an inconsiderable job on one bike let alone two, so as usual looked on YOUTUBE to see if there was anything special about Suzuki seals that might bite me on the arse when I got them apart. Found a vid about a thing called "seal mate" bit of plastic you shove down inside the seal and it hooks the crap out "WITHOUT" taking the forks apart (this only works if the seals are ok but weeping slightly which most are) long story short I made my own out of a piece of plastic that came from the top of a take out Chinese meal thingy, one of those plastic things the rice comes in, the wife NEVER throws free stuff away (if your married you know what I mean if not then you will find out) anyway now BOTH sets of seals are fine, incredible really saved me hours of work and lots of swearing!! Have a look yourself "sealmate the tool that fixes leaking fork seals" I couldn't be happier with the result.

Just thought you might give it a try and save yourself a boat load of grief or cash. :jossun:

PS if you f**k it up it's NOT my fault ok.

PPS Grouch just DON'T ok.
