The top of my fork tube is weeping oil, does the tool kit come with a suitable C spanner to tighten, if not where is a good place to get one.
It has only covered 1500 miles to date, is this a common problem :O

Scrap it, it's an absolute plum. Whilst you are breaking it can I have the wheels and carbon? Say £100 including postage?

Any motorcycle dealer should have the Ohlins tools to tighten it up.

I have just had my fork seals doen by an Aprilia dealer.

£65 in vat. :doug

Where was this? My dealer wants £110, not that I'm tight or anything but that's nearly twice the price.
ps did you have to take the fork legs out for them?
