To change the front fork seals on a Harley FXR, first, remove the front wheel and brake calipers, then detach the fork tubes from the triple tree. Next, drain the old fork oil and remove the top caps to access the fork assemblies. Carefully pull out the old seals using a seal puller or a similar tool, then install the new seals and reassemble the forks by reversing the disassembly steps, ensuring to fill with the appropriate fork oil. Finally, reattach the forks to the bike, ensuring everything is properly torqued to specifications.
To change the fork seals on a Suzuki Bandit 1200, start by removing the front wheel and brake calipers, then detach the forks from the bike. Use a fork seal driver tool to carefully remove the old seals and clean the fork tubes. Install the new seals, ensuring they are seated correctly, then reassemble the forks with fresh oil. Finally, reinstall the forks onto the bike, reattach the wheel, and ensure everything is tightened to the manufacturer’s specifications.

Remove wheel, fender. Remove Allen bolt at bottom of fork with impact wrench, it usually will not come loose, if you are trying it by hand unless you stick the special tool down into the top of fork tubes. (I use a broom handle), remove dust seals on fork legs, remove circlip, carefully remove oil seals, replace them, and reverse procedure for reassembly, add oil to fork tubes. Bubba
Great video showing how.
15.1 - 15.3oz. I just changed out a set of fork seals on mine this weekend.
Remoov the old ones and put in new ones
Check your fork oil, if it's low or leaking it's probably your seals. If the oil and seals check fine, then the fork shock springs are shot.
Unfortunately, Honda parts usually require special tools. You will need a fork seal driver, which is pretty standard. But you will also need a special driver to remove the bolt at the bottom of the forks. This tool can be made, but it may be better to order the part. Visit a Honda forum for specifics, since every bike is different. Changing fork seals is generally the same. Make sure to use a proper fork seal driver, since slight nicks to new seals can cause the seals to break. In a nutshell: Remove the dust cover, then the clip that holds the seals in place. Pull the forks apart being careful that the spring doesn't force the top fork out too quickly. Drain the oil. The parts of the forks are held together with bolts at the bottom of the forks. That's what the special tool is for. Clean out the forks and return the parts. Pour clean fork oil, drive the seals in place. Replace the clip and dust covers. The amount of fork oil is important. Check the service manual or a Honda forum.

To replace fork seals on a 1968 Triumph 650, you need to remove the front tire so that you can access the forks. The next step is to loosen the clamping bolts where the forks connect to the frame. Use the right amount of fork oil required in the owner's manual. Replace and tighten the forks.
