Need fork seals Paoli RSU46HD
I have a custom Harly with paoli front end. The seals need to be replaced and i dont know what size they are.
Nevada, USA

Best bet is pull a seal out - there will most likely be dimensions on it - email a bearing supply shop with the seal size. Ed.

The first is the Saxon Spring Fork of early 20th century which was fitted to some Blackburne models, the Monopole, Ixon, Dayton, Rolf, Dreng and many others. The second is the Saxon-Motodd system adopted by BMW and marketed as the Telelever system fitted to many of their R259 and later machines - R1100S, R1150GS, R1200GS etc.
