[QUOTE="Bryce R, post: 15915, member: 345"] I'm not sure what your talking about when you say you use your bleeders when you strap down the bike? I have been told by more then one mechanic you don't strap your bike down without putting a block or something between your tire and your forks so they can't compress when you strap it down. From what they explained to me is if you strap your bike down so that the forks compress its really hard on the seals and you will go through seals more often. I was told this after we had to replace my wifes fork seals and he seen me straping the bike down with the forks compressed. Since then I have been putting a block in and strapping the bikes down and they even ride nicer in the truck or trailer. [/QUOTE]
