Anyone have one of these that leaked, and figured out what to do with it?
Mine seems to be leaking near the adjuster knob, from the top of the case. I crashed with it prior, and then it started doing this. Not sure why a crash would cause it, tho - wasn't like the bike flipped upside down or otherwise impacted the dampner.
Anyone have one of these that knows what might be the problem/solution? I had a Scotts before and it was abused severely - never leaked. I like this one well enough, but the leaking is a drag.
Thanks.
Call GPR about it. I am sure you can send it in and have it repaired for a fee.
That is correct, according to their website. For $25 plus shipping they will refill the thing and put in new seals. Should have checked their first. Their FAQ said it's possible to blow a seal if you take a hard hit that jerks the steering head, which I did.

Didn't your mother tell you not to do that, Short? :biggrin:
BTW, I was at Gingerman yesterday and saw a black SV, white plates #128. Deja vu all over again.

Re the sseal - ha ha (that was a sitting duck).
Re #128 - hopefully you saw it in an upright position, not taking a nap on its side. ::)
BTW, it's DAMPER. :ahhh: :biggrin:
