Forks seals are such a frigging pain, I sympathize mate. I just found a puddle of oil under my CR250. Both fork seals, oil all over the pads too. Great.
They were OEM seals too.

Fucking ballache. Just ordered some stuff from Brooks Suspension and let’s see how it goes. Need to order some seal drivers.
Am I being a dumbass for ordering an eBay jobbie? -
Dirt, wear or play?
@Chak springs shouldn't rust in that sort time maybe speak to wemoto.
Reading up some people grease the seals when installing or replacing oil, are the oe ones single or double lip seal. A long while ago some ohlins forks a bike had used to go through ohlins seals on a regular basis but some Yamaha ones were double lipped while ohlins were single seal.
Would it be worthwhile to try cleaning the seals with a bit of old camera film.

First set was fucking All balls as per recommendation from adventure rider. All shite more like.
Second set was supposed to be OEM from WeMoto. Obviously not. Had them workshop fitted. Dust seal springs rusted in a month. Pissed out oil today; MOT day.
