fork seals orientation

[rd400canuck]

Dont kill me for asking but which way do the for seals go in?  The large gap side of the seal inwards?

Thats what I suspect but after some of the dumb things Ive found on this bike I wanted to double check.

yes, you are right. the more -open- cup faces down. the flatter side goes up.

yep, so it can expand and seal when fork compressing. Also like other similar things writing or marks out.

Amazing how much crud is in these things!
