Ok heres the problem I just got my dads fatboy and I mean just only put 500 miles since june due to work schedule anyways when I trailered it from az to ks I got a bit happy with the straps and wrenched her down all the way got to ks and first good ride there's a fork seal leak so to the indy she goes for new seals and while there a new mikuni just for fun. Get it back runs like bat out of hell thinking awsome no more problems except this weekend go for a decent lil breakfast ride bout 150 miles round trip and notice its leaking again. I watched the indy change the seals so I know they were done its only the left side that leaks any pointers. My indy did say that they looked a bit thinner then the ones that came out and he couldn't find a prob with the ones he removed so now what did I f up lol thanks guys sorry for the long post

 

There is probably no f up! If the tube has rsut spots in the chrome a seal can get cut up very quickly. On the other hand if the tubes are fine, get a fresh pair of seals put in and inspect closely while it's apart. There is not a lot that can go wrong with seals, I just bought a pair for my own bike. All being well new ones will be fine.

 

What brand did you get

 

I have come across this before and only fit Genuine H-D seals now as the aftermarket ones suck.

You'll also need to look closely at the fork legs for signs of corrosion or wear, if the seal has worn through the chrome you can put the leg in a lathe and smooth it out with 40 grit emery but a new leg is the only real fix.

 

Sh*t that's what I'm affraid of spanner but it can't be or should I say shouldnt be its a 94 that only has 29k my pops had her in the garage for the last seven yrs on a jack covered and stored right but now you mention it the seals I had put in were aftermarket hopefully that's the problem don't want to buy new a new leg if I do any suggestions on maybe a upgrade to the front end

 

Just progressive springs and maybe a heavier oil.

 

Thank you much kind sir does progressive springs make that big of a diference ( probably a dumb question)

 

You'll know they are in there

 

In relpy to your leak ., take it back to the shop and have it redone under your 30 day warrenty .
Yes , progressive springs are great and you should have them installed when they warrenty the seal job that went bad .
