Hi
My suzuki inazuma fork oil seal broken when i hit a bad patch of road last week. probably i think has to do with the bike sitting idle long through the Lockdown. now the bummer is, I tried to check with Suzuki dealer in chennai where I bought the bike (SMK suzuki) and their response is like we dont procur spare parts for that bike. and I checked with the only other dealer who can procur for me in Tamilnadu (NJ suzuki Coimbatore) and they also gave a very vague response and eventually went down the same path like SMK chennai. so i tried my luck with the local dealers in chennai and i ran into a spec difference. my bike spec says that the fork oil seal should be 37*48*8/9.5 but they have either 37*48*9 or 37*48*10. they are convincing me that its okay to install with slight difference in the width of the seal (as i researched, understood that the spec is outer Diameter * inner diameter * width). my doubt is should i go for a oil seal with minor differences? Please assist.
