Fork seals

Post  stevo893 on Fri Sep 11, 2009 3:46 pm

Have just ordered some Hagon progressive fork springs and a new Hagon shock from Banditmania for my b6. I was just wondering if i need to put new fork seals in when the new springs are fitted. They do not leak at the moment.

Youre not touching the seals when you change the springs and oil But if your confident with the spanners you might as well.
