Default NEED FORK SEAL WORK ON YAMAHA !!!help!!!

2000 Yamaha YZF 600r
OK, I've got some leaky fork seals that are leaking oil onto the front rotor where the brake pads touch to stop the bike, and this oil is making the brakes function improperly and drastically reducing stopping power
SO THIS NEEDS TO GET FIXED

SO... Does anyone know a place that does cheap fork seal work that can fix this problem.
I got a quote for $200.00
But I was wondering if anyone knows a cheaper spot.

Thanks

cheapest never ment "best"

go with a shop that has a strong customer referal.
you might spend 240 now but in the long run, you will be glad, Chad and Jimmy @ Kenetic are some of the best around, Chad is by far one of the best in Fl with suspension work

need tires (take offs)? PM me
need a deal on a track day? PM me

disclaimer: I sell used tires (take-offs), these tires have been used at Jennings, Homestead, etc. (road courses for those that dont know) therefor these tires are more used up on the sides than in the middle,

how much work youthink you can handle, rebuilding a forks is EASY but itll take you half a saturday to do it. Google it and see if you can undertake the task yourself. You will spend about 70 or more in parts though with the oil and seals.
