    Noticed after the second moto this afternoon that my TC450 leaked fork oil from the top cap on one side. Can't tell exactly from where it came out.

    They are 50mm closed carthridge Marzocchi type. Bike has 35 hrs. Anyone had this happen?

    mine had some leakage around the red inner chamber cap,I just tightened mine up and was told there had to be air in the sealed chamber because of that,there is a thread showing how to bleed the air out of that chamber

    Both sides needed to be tightened, i guess its something to keep an eye on. Probably air in them, but they will need new seals at some point and i will send them out for a rebuild at the same time.

    thanks

    makes sure you are releasing the pressure reguraly with the air bleed screw on the fork cap also. I'm sure that didnt cause the leak but it couldnt hurt :thumbsup:
