Yz250 leaking from fork guard mounting hole

[Jim1234]

My sons yz250 is leaking from one of the fork guard mounting hole. What's the best repair for this do I need a new fork lug? Thanks

Hmmm...not likely the lug. Did someone use the wrong fork guard bold and put one in that is too long? Usually that just deforms the tube, but who knows... There is also an o-ring on the axle lugs, but usually if that is bad you see oil forming around the top of the lug.

You're right, I need a fork tube or complete lower leg with 6 oem fork guard bolts

Don't buy this from Yamaha directly. I can source this directly from KYB if you need me to. Chances are you'll be needing a spring too. If you buy the tube I'll throw in a spring.
