Question small leak in fork, how do i fix?

I noticed a couple of drops coming from one of the forks right at the bottom of it. I'm not sure what to replace and how to do it. Let me know, thanks!

sounds like you have blown a fork seal. If you replace one you should replace both.

Personally I never do my own seals......pain the arse

Yeah it's not all that fun and there are a couple special tools (you can get them easy enough) but Like Jester I pull them off and take them to a guy who really knows his stuff and go back and pick em up and slap em back on much easier and to me well worth the expense to know a pro did it. I do most all the work on my bikes but that's one those things I turn over to a smart guy
