Which waaayy do the fork seals go?

[Guest]

Searched for pictures. I need pictures dangit!

Fork seals for the 1k.
Im almost 90% sure the first pic would be correct but before I send em home I need someone to tell me for sure.

The first pic is wrong. The second pic is correct.

Aye, he is correct.. the little spring looking thing seen in the fist pic is the wiper seal.. this is what keeps the crap from coming in as the fork stanchion goes into the lower and prevents anything from cutting up the fork seal.. THAT part should be facing UP as in your second pic...if you put it in upside down, not only will it probably leak like a siev, but you'll likely ruin the seal trying to get it out.. hope you didnt get that far yet >>

Nope.. Waiting for replies and I'm glad I did, as I was obviously wrong

Thanks dudes!

Oh, can bairly see it in the pic but there are two springs on these seals.
Not sure if that makes any difference..
