Today I picked up new fork oil seals and oil. I totally disassembled the forks, cleaned them, and put them all back together. Whoever owned the bike before me did a horrible job of maintaining it. The old oil was pretty nasty, and stunk like old oil.

A nice surprise was that the RaceTech stickers weren't on there just for looks. The forks had RaceTech springs, spacers, and valving in them. I have a box of spare TT600 fork parts, so I swapped all the RaceTech stuff out for the stock TT600 parts. The RaceTech parts look very good, so I might be trying to sell those soon. I packed the head-stock bearing and got the front end put back together.
