    Fork seals gone. 2006 model with 33k on the clock.
    Anyone recommend any suspension specialist. I'm north Derbyshire but I am prepared to travel.

    Parkitt Racing in Tuxford did a full service & rebuild on mine.
    If you have a headstock stand and are able to take the forks off then it would save waiting around. I dropped mine off and picked them up a week later.

    Thanks for that Muffking, I dropped my forks in at Parkitt this afternoon.

    Good shout. They'll come back as good as new.
    Are they doing much else to them other than oil & seals?
    I had them add K-Tech springs to my weight on my RR6. I think it was only an extra £85.

    I quizzed him about springs, but he said for road use (I'm too old for track days) I'm ok with standard springs.
    Thanks again for recommending them :)
