I've got some 2007 120 RLs, and don't really fancy paying for the service.

I've had a look at the bike radar guide, but are there any other good full service guides you could recommend?

Plus, where's the best place to get the seals and fluid?

If your seals are not blown you don't need new ones, you can use any fork oil in them much cheaper than the fox stuff

Sorry for the slight hijack but can you use say motorbike fork oil providing its the same viscosity?

If so does it matter if you use mineral or synthetic oil?

The Enduro Fork Seals website has some good walkthoughs of the stripdown/rebuilds.

Another quick question on a similar topic, what're the best seals to order in the UK?
Just get them from Mojo or are any aftermarket seals better?
Thanks!

Yep, thanks a lot. Always good to have a photo rich walk-through.

Really good photo rich guides. Did my 36s last week and all is well.
