How To Replace Fork Seals on WP XACT AER Motorcycle Forks

[@R1Kyle]

Holy heck bat man, I think this just might be the very first fork seal change video I watched where I did not cringe multiple times at for dumb stuff or wrong stuff the or just bad mechanical practices. You sir are a miracle baby!

Gee willickers, Batman, we did it!

I'm sure Charles would love some cookies!

@@rmatvmc Do you know who makes that dual sided inner cap tool, I like it.

[@blarpieman]

Minus the screw driver that just marred up your upper fork leg. I always use a piece of polycarbonate shaved down to a sharp knife and stick it into the seal and bang on it with a soft mallet and you will never marr your aluminum or miss and hit the leg.

On another note, who makes that dual sided inner cap tool, I like it.

[@BLACKISWACK09]

Thanks for the very informative video, thorough and helpful! Looking forward to servicing mine in the near future.

[@fyrefitrt2]

Thanks for the great video. I have these forks on my '21 300XC TPI, and (hopefully) won't need it for a while, but it will come in handy when I do.

Can you post the link for the special socket for the damper rod?

Great video well explained . Thank you.

[@gerardabbatte331]

Informative and easy to understand. Thank You

[@jacobworld333]

Back up ring - which direction does it go? It has 2 sides . Thx

[@human1513]

Thnank you for doing this video.

[@jasonbatley5492]

Great video Will a 2021 ktm 85 fork be similar to this?

[@Steezy_Mx]

I don’t think it is. I’ve been scouring the internet. I think the damper rod part is skipped and the inner part. I’m not 100% though

[@ranvirsinghnetam8584]

Great video guys Can you specify which types of seal grease do you guys prefer , as I am indian and racetech grease is far-off my grasp. Please specify NLGI 1,2,3 WHICH IS SUITABLE ,and is silicone grease or lithium or regular grease will work without causing leaks

[@AllMotoTireLLC]

Any video available for the 2015 1290 Super Adventure S?

[@jarrettrichard8242]

I recently serviced my forks as per your instructions. I noticed when I drained the old fork oil on the right fork that the oil was significantly thicker- almost like molasses. The left side fork oil was normal. Any idea why this might be?

[@rmatvmc]

Are you the original owner? It's possible someone only changed one side out before. The stock oil seems real syrupy. -Charles

[@joshuaculleton5230]

Sick video, guys 🤙🤙

[@rmatvmc]

Thanks! Hope it helped! -Charles

[@jamesevans5481]

What's the name of that Port cap tool that takes out the center

[@Ram-vt3rm]

I am hoping we can laugh and cry together. My 24’ KTM 65sx had the front shocks damaged when the bike was tied down in the truck bed. I don’t know the extent of the damage but I heard two loud BOOMs coming from the bike. I pulled over and noticed the tie down straps were tighter than a camels ass in a sand storm. The shocks don’t rebound like before, no oil leaking and I am hoping for some advice on were to start. Thanks.

[@66AGW]

Thank you!

[@mavericktire]

Would be nice if you made a tool list that we could reference to buy what we needed for this job.

[@rmatvmc]

You can click the first link in the video description to see the parts and tools we used.

[@chobitrial]

Can y’all do this video for the kyb sss forks

[@phat-kw9ox]

Exact same process just with a spring on the inside

[@BurkeJayson]

What is the Shipping size and weight

[@nuthintoprove]

Good video but Dang, forks installed and wheel on and forgot the lights, remove the wheel and forks and put the lights on and back to square one. My dad always said "if there isn't time to do it right, there is always time to do it over, so pay attention." I always retorted I was so poor I couldn't even pay attention.

[@davekovalchek8102]

great video,but you forgot to reinstall thr lights

[@hyposez1129]

Is it normal for the damper side fork leg to not fully extend like at 15:46? Cause I took mine off and it doesn't fully extend but when i lift the fork up from ground it extends.

[@DavidReason-ko5kx]

It went together easily in less than an hour. kzbin.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.

[@1Kreul]

Great info, but safety glasses and gloves, wimp. No OSHA in the typical garage. I got my safety squints and hands that have been impervious to harm for 30+ years. Love the content, but call it as I see it.

[@rmatvmc]

Safety is no accident, but I like the safety squints lol. -Charles
