Oil on my fork....

[Batman]

When I pulled back into my spot at work I noticed a bit of oil on the ground, not a lot, but a spot. I looked at my fork (only briefly as i was returning to work), and found that there is oil on it... Does this mean my fork seals are Blown? or could there just be some dirt up there or?

time for new seals sorry

Clean the fork, pump the frontend a few times (hard), check for more oil. If you find some, Daniel gave you the answered.

My busa sat for a few months( for paint) and it had a little oil on one of the forks. I started ridding it and it quit so hope it is a simple thing like dirt or something..

do you pull alot of wheelies? your bike isnt that old is it?

[Batman]

no it's an 06, when I bought it in February it had 6700 Mi on it, it now has just under 13000. I wheelie here and there, but i'm no stunter. I have a couple buddies who need there seals done too so maybe we'll just have a party....

[roadrunner]

on my last bike if i did not keep my fork tubes free of bugs and crap the bugs would harden and cut my seals it was a a real pain

[Batman]
