chevysoldier Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 I put leak proof seals on my FZR in like July of 09. Haven't had any issues. IIRC they have a lifetime warranty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 They are leakproof, not willy proof, Squidsworth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whaler Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 It has been my experience that leak-proof brand seals are junk. They cost as much as the OEM seals but do not perform at all...static friction is worse, and they leak.Purchase the OEM seals and you will have no problems, just make sure you install them in the proper orientation...your service manual should indicate top and bottom.

Ron505 Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Leak-proof fork seals....seriously? Do some research.We used to put Honda seals in our Yamaha's because the Honda seals had 2 ribs instead of 1. Almost double the protection.
