Anyone have any experience with them? I haven't since my dirt bike days but I remember them as being da bom. I sent an email asking about Uly fitment but no response so far. Stock seals are on back order for weeks now and I'm getting tired of fork fluid all over the place. That and bi-monthly replacements. Input?

Treat the cause, not the symptom. Something is really wrong for bi-monthly replacements. 43k combined between my Uly and SS, and never a single fork issue, and i (used to anyway) ride like CityXslicker.

I think it's me, not the bike. And I eggadurate (sp) a bit. Two total in about 13,000 miles. One on each side and shame on me for not replacing both when the first one popped. I wheelie too much and sometimes have slammed down too hard. It happens. I'm still interested to hear if anyone has tried Leak Proof Seals on a Buell (if they are even made).

Again 43k combined:
Its possible that you really are damaging them more than me, but i have done a ton of damage to them, including still to this day running no fork guards and have had no issues. Hell you only blew each side once, not like you have had a real issue yet.

I popped one on the Uly doing a stoppie, I wanted to replace both but could only get one, still have two more on order and they are no where to be found.
