It's been three weeks since I rode the XJ for the last time. I've had a vacation in the mean time and didn't feel the need to use the Yamaha. Today I had to work again, so I used the trusted steed again.
I had already noticed that the front suspension was quite soft again. Today I got my fear confirmed: leaking left fork leg. Again. That's the price you've got to pay when they put a flimsy fork like that on such a heavy bike. Got to make an appointment with my dealer asap.
