I found a knic in my lower fork tube its more like a gash, kinda. well i dont know what to do to fix them. ITs all the way at bottom about a inch up. I have a 99 yz125. ANY help?

Give it a good rub with some wet and dry untill smooth. To fill the chip i use super glue, and have done for years. A couple of drops should be enough to fill the chip. You can use heat to speed up the drying but once dry rub it back with some 1200 wet and dry. Do this untill you can't feel the chip when you run your thumb accross it. Install new seals and away you go.

Hey thanks man for the tip

Check the outer bushing for scrapes as that may let extra oil past and make the new seal leak easier .
