Hi Winne,
went several thousand km with leaking fork seals through russia and Korea and lost quite a lot of forkoil of my R 100 GS (Could not exchange the seals, since I had no spare ones)
What happened to me:
- At one point on a very bumpy road, oil got on the breakdisk on bumpy roads. I cleaned it with petrol and the breakpads with a kaercher.
- after losing a lot of oil, I heard screetching sounds
- the front suspension was very soft in the end, giving funny response in fast curves
- the front tire weared out in a funny way so I had to change it earlier than expected.
I do not think that you will have any major problems when riding to the next mechanic if you ride carefully
Regards
Lars
