BLOWN FORK SEAL

[CYCLEERIC]

My 03 Busa has just blown its 2nd left fork seal . Its first was at 150 miles and this one started leaking yesterday at 1100 miles......WTF . Does anyone else have this kind of problems with their Busa or is it just my riding ?

Mine leaked with 0 miles. I bought it, tied it down in the back of my truck, and when I got home there was a puddle of fork oil from the right fork. Warranty covered that one, haven't had any problems since (1200 miles).

I do a few wheelies now and then but I never had any problems with my TLR and I treated it way harder then I've done to the Busa .

check your fork tube for nicks or abrasions some times small nicks from sand may be enough to cause the seal to wear prematurely.
