"Lewis,
The pitting you mention is usually from material stuck in the dust seal reservoir over time that wears away at the finish on the stanchion. This is usually not a warranty issue, but we can always have your shop send it back to us under an RA so we can check it out.
Thanks,
Geoff Przekop"
I don't think so haha, doesn't quite explain the pitting at the top of the forks -_-
Sounds like codswallop to me. It would be wear lines like you get on Fox forks, not randomly placed dots and as you say it's highly unlikely that could even happen at the top of the stanchion.
so i thought,
Fishers rang me and sounded really posotive and helpful, i smell some bulls**t from this guy though!
an RA?
that's not wear from the stanchions sliding in the seal, they might argue the stanchion has been hit by debris, chipped the finish and then rusted I guess but it's all over the stanchion.
thats cack, he's thinking of the other common fault that is when it wears the stantion coating off around the seal from poor sealing, which happened to my year old set of lyrics. Your issue is something seperate entirely.
I apologise that my life does not evolve around stern letter writing,
I took Maths Physics and Chemistry, I'm not a hairyfairy englishy person -_-
Generally, when a forum member takes time out of their working day to rewrite a letter on your behalf, the lack of a "thank you" and the subsequent insult may well be construed as you being extremely rude.
In the meantime, it does not look like contamination under the seals. As others have said, you'd expect to see vertical score marks on the stanctions themselves as opposed to general pitting.
you can repair small pits in stanchions using nail varnish, if you're worried about it affecting your seals. Obviously this will probably end your warranty chances, but i've done it to repair deep scratches before and it works fine
I think i'll give the warranty claim a go and see what the result is 
You still haven't thanked me for my help or apologised for the insult.
@lewismorgan: F&*^ed forks or not - it seems that you easily upset with your on-line behaviour. Thank & apologies to the very kind person that did you a huge favour.
the message was aimed at cruzheckler not you.
and i apologise, but im not going to say thank you after every comment
