March 11, 20188 yr Hi all, Have been lurking around here for a while. I recently picked up a Beta Evo 250 from 2010. For the age its in pretty good condition. After riding this weekend, it looks like one of the fork seals is weeping a little. If I was to change the seals, is there anything else recommended to do at the same point? I have seen some suggest the springs on the 2009 and 2010 Evo's to be not the best. What is the recommended replacement for the springs? Any recommendations on oil weight or just go with whats in the manual? Thanks a lot!
March 11, 20188 yr If it's only a weep you might get away with just cleaning behind the seal. Plenty videos, I'm sure. Edited March 11, 20188 yr by 2stroke4stroke
March 11, 20188 yr Author Yes, my hope is that I can clear it with a feeler gauge or something equally suitable (not sure I have any negatives anymore ). This was more in preparation for clearing it out not being the solution and having to do the change. Obviously I am hoping for the simpler solution... Just not sure given I don't know the provenance of the bike (although I must say, pervious owner was an engineer and so far everything has been well looked after).

I'll give it a try. Anyone any comment on the springs or seal replacement scenario?
