98 yzf 600R..Right fork leaking. Problem and fix?

Not brake fluid or Hydraulic oil ( oil weight is the issue)
Drain forks ( bottom nipple) , remove top bold , be careful it is pressurized by spring . Use the right tool otherwise will damage bolt and your face.

Front forks should be sealed properly, fork seal should be intact, no water or brake fluid in them. Right amount of fork fluid is imperative along with oil weight specification ( check manual and appropriate oil weight for your bike), wrong oil and amount can otherwise damage your forks.

Stop.. change the oil and filter and put the right amount of oil in it.. then see what happens... then you will KNOW it right...

are the forks leaking oil? is there air pressure in the forks? Start by draining the forks and putting in the correct ammount of the proper oil, and getting the air pressure right then see how she rides. Other things to check, front wheel bearings, worn triple tree bearings.

hi did you get a solution for this? the same thing happened to me too.I had my oil change yesterday and today I saw the engine oil pressure lights come off and the oil started leaking very bad and the mechanic told me that the oil filter housing cracked.

have you fixed the leak ? if so then you can just pull the handle bars and undo the top cap on the forks you may hear air escaping when you do this but thats ok it shouldn't be there any way adding oil is easy the right amount is the trick (tool required) looks like this available at a local bike shop near you depending on your skill level and what you are doing with the bike the right type and amount of oil in the front forks can dramaticaly affect the bike handeling Good Luck ride safe

Each fork has an outer dust seal, and an inner seal inside of that. Dirt gets between the seal lip and the fork slider and causes the oil to escape. The fix is to have them (Both sides) replaced. You need a fork seal driver tool (Size specific for the size of the fork) and something to measure out the oil amount. It's not an easy job, if you have never done it. Also... if the oil has never been changed, it's due.

a jump box is nothing more then a battery with leads on it so where are you connecting it verses the new battery you put in the bike. that doesn't make since unless you are connecting the box right to the starter motor then it be constently running the motor untill you unhooked it. check all your fuses and examine all wire harnesses for damage, burns, or any mellting.
