Hi,
I have a set of 07 Boxxer world cups... I have noticed if I don't ride the bike for a few months I am losing half the travel.... they still work (compression/rebound etc) but I only have a few inches of travel and it does not rectify. The first time this happened I re-built them changing some o-rings, thought it was fixed and got full travel again. The second time I bought a complete service kit and changed all the o-rings etc and it has happened yet again.... if I ride the bike everything is fine... its only when I leave it sitting (upright) in the garage for a long period of time.
I suspect oil may be leaking through to the bottom of the fork... I want to make sure I fix it this time round!!!
Was wondering if anyone has heard of this before? And what they found?
Regards,
Dan.
