they shouldn't.. you need to replace the fork seals
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.
The KX65 comes with both shock and fork four way adjustable rebound dampening. This allows for a smother ride by adjusting the dampeners for the terrain to be ridden over.
When changing fork oil seals, it's generally a good practice to also replace the bushings (often referred to as "DU bushings") if they show signs of wear or damage. This is because worn bushings can lead to poor fork performance and can damage new seals, leading to leaks. If the bushings are in good condition, they can be reused, but inspecting them thoroughly is essential before making that decision.
To replace the fork seals on a 1994 XR250, start by removing the front wheel and brake caliper, then loosen the fork clamps to slide the forks out of the triple clamps. Drain the fork oil by removing the drain screws or taking off the bottom caps. Use a seal driver or a suitable tool to carefully remove the old seals from the fork tubes and install new seals, ensuring they are seated properly. Finally, refill the forks with the appropriate oil and reassemble everything in reverse order, making sure to torque all bolts to specification.
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
