If you are experiencing a front shock absorber leakage issue on your Royal Enfield Bullet, here are some steps you can take to address the problem:
Inspection: Start by inspecting the left shock absorber thoroughly. Look for any visible damage, such as cracks or tears in the rubber seal or oil leakage from the shocker body.
Check the oil level: Ensure that the shock absorber has the correct oil level. Refer to your bike's owner manual for the recommended specifications. If the oil level is too low, it may cause inadequate lubrication and leakage. Top up the oil if necessary.
Tighten fittings: Check the fittings and connections of the shock absorber. Make sure they are tightened properly. Loose fittings can lead to oil leakage. Use appropriate tools to tighten any loose bolts or screws.
Replace the rubber seal: If you notice a damaged rubber seal, it will need to be replaced. Remove the old seal carefully, ensuring not to damage the shock absorber or surrounding parts. Install a new rubber seal according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Inspect the shocker body: Examine the shocker body for any signs of damage or wear. If you notice any cracks or other issues, it may be necessary to replace the shock absorber assembly entirely.
Seek professional help: If you are unsure about performing the repairs yourself or if the problem persists after attempting the above steps, it is advisable to take your bike to a qualified mechanic or a Royal Enfield service center. They have the expertise and experience to diagnose and resolve the issue effectively.
Remember, proper maintenance and regular servicing of your bike can help prevent such problems in the future.
