Fork Seals
2015 R1200RT. Just had y fork seals replaced. They were both weeping, and my mechanic suggested I should get them replaced. So, after they were replaced, I found that sitting on the bike, engine off, ignition off, front brake applied, trying to "rock" the bike fore and aft. and found that the front end was like a rock! Didn't move one iota. Started the bike and sure enough, the front suspension was "enabled". Went for a 60Km ride and found all seemed OK. My questions are...is this normal? Is the front suspension also controlled by the electronic wizardry suspension adjustment (Hard, Normal and Soft)?

Re: Fork Seals
AFAIK, if the motorcycle is fitted with ESA, the front suspension/shock absorber damping can be adjusted to Hard, Normal & Soft.rickmeister wrote: ↑Thu Aug 29, 2024 4:04 amIs the front suspension also controlled by the electronic wizardry suspension adjustment (Hard, Normal and Soft).
