Decided to replace my leaking fork seals on the GS850 today. Found the easiest way to pull the old seal out was to take a propane torch to the seal and then use a screwdriver to pop it out. Both seals came out without any issues at all. I feel it's the easiest way to get them out. Just wanted to share and let those that have reported issues getting them out using other ways.
On a plus note, the bike rides MUCH better now that everything is back in working order. The only issue I had was I broke the air inlet on one fork by being a little aggressive when sealing the cap.
So, now I'm needing a replacement. Stock replacement is going for around $13.00.
Luckily I had one on the project GS1000 that I could borrow so I'm not without a ride.
