was shining my bike up this morning and noticed one of the front fork seals is weeping a bit, 98 honda fireblade, just shelled out on a load of bits and pieces, no wonder i have no money, ahs anyone else had this job done (on a similar bike) recently? and more importantly what did it cost to fix it?

lee replacing fork seals aint that hard a job mate i havent taken a bike to get it done in a shop before.. main thing to check is are the forks pitted at all as this could add to the final cost of getting it done. if doing yourself then cost of the seals and fork oil plus a few hours of your time:D

fire blade fork seals, £78.00 each m8 plus about £90 to £130 per fork for fitting at least.
