| Oil residue on re-built forks |

Hi all, quick question for the group, I have just rebuilt my forks, new seals / dust covers fitted and new top bush too, new oil and re-fitted to the bike (2002 FZS). They feel a lot better and I have done a couple of 40 milers since the re-build but am now noticing some very light oil residue on the stanchions and lines of oil at the top end of the fork travel. I had expected the high tide marks but not the very thin coating on the stanchions? My XJR stanchions are bone dry. Any tips / advice? I am learning the ropes so to speak at motorcycle maintenance so it is very possible that I could have done something wrong [color=rgb(68, 68, 68)][font=&][/font][/color] [color=rgb(68, 68, 68)][font=&] its usually my fault (photos taken but were not showing the fault very good, so did not upload them)
TIA

Can anyone tell me the simplest way(and I mean for the under 5's as totally computer illiterate) to downsize pics so I can post them. I only have my android galaxy so don't have a laptop.

Hiya peeps, I'm hoping to take my bike to France soon for 5 days of just riding around. What do I need to take and what in your opinions is an essential take. The law seem to change regularly so what do I need to take legally? Hi viz, breathalyser?

Me and Dave (Dynspud) had a bloody lovely day on the welsh mountain roads yesterday, him on his fazer, me on the xjr. Arranged to do it again today, but on the cruisers this time, and take a relaxed ride up to the reservoirs. This morning me and the gruppenfuhrer headed out to Chepstow then stopped for a coffee before heading deeper into wales, to meet Dave at the bike café just outside of Abergavenny. Thats when I got the text.."Had a big smash mate, bikes mullered. Sorry but cant make it.."
Couldn't get him on the phone(was tied up with the police and ambulance etc as it turned out) so we set of for Abergavenny, then tried again at the café. Finally got hold of him, and Dave being Dave, he said not to worry, he'd be fine etc, but we weren't having that so headed out to his gaff. Got there to find one very sore and rightly pissed off (think his bikes a write off ) feller.
Im so relieved my mate is ok but gutted for him. He fucking loved that bike to bits, and a two grand bike written off means fuck all to an insurance company, whilst at the same time an awful lot to us who run and look after them.
I know most of you dont know Dave, but hes one of lifes good uns, and a bloody good friend to have.
im just glad hes still here...

Been out for a real blast today on some fantastic sweeping fast roads was awesome getting the engine singing upto to 140mph
(clocks not lying honest) :lol
Sadly I put my key in the side bit to unlock the seat to get my glasses out out and forgot about it, ok me thinks i'll put it on the main stand and wang on some wd40 chain wax whilst it's warm i thought.
Being a bit challenged in the strength department due to my rhumatoid arthritis in my hands it's always a struggle to get it on the main stand without fear of dropping it, as i was pulling back for the 3rd time heard the keys fall on the floor...... aaahhh shyte thats buggered it now.
I managed to get the bit out but now have a key in 2 bits, I dont know how im gonna fix that, other than trying superglue and hope miserable mick in the key shop isnt in a rager that day when i try ask him if its possible to make a new one from a superglued old one. :wall
moral of the story is
ALWAYS TAKE OUT YOUR KEY BEFORE PUTTING IT ON THE MAINSTAND
:'(
