Noticed a fork oil leak on my new to me 1985 250sx. Took off the Carlisle tire on front and saw this. Wow! Really wish it was only my fork seals now! What exactly do I need to fix this?

Figure out why it was rubbing and pick up a new fork leg here or on ebay. Beyond repair

This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

My 85sx did that too lol. Somehow the previous owner that ruined the bike also lost the spacer for the front wheel so it was sliding freely back and forth about an inch or two both ways on the front axle. I had to replace the fork halves because my front tire rubes through both of them lol FUN. Good luck man. And by little sleeve/spacer that belOngs on the front axle to avoid this issue again

Ok! Started to break the front shocks down this afternoon. Everything was going well until I got to the right side allen screw at the bottom of fork legs. It's one turn away from being stripped. Any bright ideas anyone? We have a shop at work but big bosses frown on the maintance guys doing work for us. I know this may sound crazy but has anyone ever glued or welded a allen wrench to a stripped screw? And if so did it work?
