August 31, 200520 yr Any fellow Seeley owners in here know the best way to change the fork seals? Just found that one of my fork legs has a serious 'ding' right where the seals sit and it looks like a welding job may be required. The damage is so bad that most of the width of the top seal is visible, I will probably have to get a sleeve made to match the top of the leg, section it,weld it into position and machine top bore to suit the new seal. Any dis-assembly/assembly info warmly welcomed. Thanks again, Mark.
August 31, 200520 yr are these not the same marzocchi forks like the fantic? maybe look for info/parts there...
August 31, 200520 yr Mark Seeley forks use the same casting as early 125/200 Fantics and SWM's. The only difference is that the bolt holes are larger on the Seeley, so should be ok to use. I only have a right hand (speedo) side available.....any use to you. Martin www.motoswm.com
September 1, 200520 yr Author Thanks for the offer Martin....mines the bloody left side! never mind, I'll get the leg welded and machined. Now that I know that the leg is common to a few other bikes I can always go looking for a few spares, thanks again, Mark.
