Changing fork seals on the 500

Post by Treebod »

Hello, please can anyone give me tips on how to change the fork seals on the 500,there are no dust caps/collars on mine and seemingly no circlip, just a metal insert sitting on top of the seal, is this usual,any ideas would be welcome. Thank you.

If they are Marzocchi that metal collar should have a small slit in it at a diagonal to the circumference.
Just use a small screwdriver to get out the clip, it can be a bit of a pain.
Then you can pull out the seals.
