Fork seal....when they go bad
On the ride home from work today....that's when! 60,000+ miles. Guess it was time.

Mine almost made it to 50,000. I even had them out and back in twice before that!

I was kinda surprised they lasted so long. I'm used to MX bikes where they go bad once, sometimes twice, a year.

Damn really, 60k miles? Did they explode or something. Usually they just gradually weep and make a mess.

I thought they only exploded after hard wheelie landings...
