fork seals?

[Jayjayridge]

ok so i have searched but cant find a uk supplier for my fork seals. can anybody advise me on where and what to order.

[snapdragon]

pretty sure I bought oil seals by size and dust seals as Xtra (listed as X Raptor) seals from Wemoto the dust seals don't have the little 'gaiters' but they do fit.

Wemoto do both sets of seals http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/cagiva/x_raptor_1000/01-04/ they don't list them as Raptor 1000 or V Raptor for some reason but I believe the forks are the same dimensions on each

I did post at the time, will try to find the thread

The monster 620 has the same forks right?
Do the fork seals match?

[Jayjayridge]

oh ok i thought the x rap had uprated suspension and stuff?

never had a Ducati, and not sure if the 1000 is the same as the 650 Raptor so I can't say, sorry Dante. Though if those Duc forks are the same as the 650 then - probably

the internals and tweaking nuts could be JJ, but the seals fit

so i am thinking go with the xrap ones from wemoto and some 15w fork oil as i am a bit tubby. will post a howto if anybody wants to see it.

I'd go for 10 rather than 15 because I believe the original is 5, am non technical but I'd think that 15 might make the front bounce about some. I'd adjust the rear shock more for 'laden weight'

[Jayjayridge]

i thought 15w was thicker and so made it compress and rebound hard. lol at laden weight

[shedmonkey]

Correct 15 is heavier oil but most people think standard forks are hard so tend to go lighter

cool cheers so 10w it is.
