leaking forks
BINGO -- Bill has the best solution for stopping future leak problems. Fork booties , the best first defense to keep dirt and rocks away from precision ground fork sliders. Whenever you get a bike with exposed fork tubes install a set of fork boots before you get the tubes nicked or worn. Seals will last a lot longer.This may be a problem though with the new upside down forks. I have found that HONDA fork boots for XL600 and XL650 series are very durable , have installed them on a BMW 20 years ago and still holding up and more recently on my KLR. KLR stock replacements only lasted a year, other rubber aftermarket boots also gave out rapidly.
