Hi, I bought a Gas Gas TXT Pro 125 (2003) about 6 months ago, the previous owner claimed to of changed the fork seals before the sale and said that they always leak, I think he may off put the wrong oil in as it seems very thin. Before changing the seals I would like to replace the oil and see if it stops, what is a good oil to use and how much do they hold?

 

Cheers

Glynn

Check this Video out. but i've always used 5 weight when i had the pro model in my forks.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AP-v_c0g0mw plus you could try one these, or even make one because it could be just dirt trapped in your seals.

Hi Glynn, if he said the seals always leak I'd be looking for a small scratch or scuff marks on the fork slider....maybe?.

Cheers Taff

the fork oil should be thin
