hey guys so i just finshed doing my fork but i have a question when i was part 2:57 and when i pressed it al the way in a blast of air cam throught the bleed hole and some oil is that ok then it was fine

@billyman1221 - yes, you want them a little overfilled so the air and excess oil will get pushed out the bleed out.

How would I know if my forks are leaking? There seems to be oil by my front tire and some more by the dust cover, I thought when fork seals go they go all at once? What would you rate this for on a scale of 1-10 10 being the hardest to do yourself?

@happywombatproducts - they can leak slow at first. with the right tools the job is very easy. 3

Hey i have an 08' KTM 250 Xc-f i think it has dual chamber but is there anything special about wp forks i need to know or would i be fine changing the seals myself after watching this video?

[RockyMountainATVMC]

@retz250 - there are certainly some differences, but you can do it. Just keep your manual close by.

man it looks pretty basic if i got the tools and a shop wants like 150 plus part to do them and tools will cost prob 70 bucks so fuck it im doing them my self

Whats the deal with the ktm 350 forks? I heard they have a nitrogen bladder in the fork that needs to be deflated??
