Guest Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Hi All,Finally go my Bandit back on the road and its approaching the MOT time.Now, I think I have sorted all the little problems, but the one thing I am unsure about is the front forks.After a ride there is whats best described as a tide mark on the front fork tubes. I am guessing this is due to leaking seals? Is that an MOT Fail?CheersBen Quote
fleat Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 i think it depends on how bad but generally speaking yes it is an mot fail Quote
Colin the Bear Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 And it will get worse, rapidly. Easy fix though, if it's just the seals. Check for pitted/chipped chrome. Quote
Guest Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Thanks Gents,Seal kit in the post!you'll need new fork oil, dont get 10W soft as, use 15 or 20w.. i'm running 20w, and the GSX aint much different to the bandit, but had 15w in my B Six, 10w was just to bouncy.. Quote
