Fork Leaking Fluid

My fork is leaking fluid out of the screw for the compression damping. The bike has been at the dealer (who I trust) for almost 3 weeks now and they can't find an o-ring part number or parts diagram for it anywhere. They have a call in to KTM USA but told me I might as well come pick it up (it was also in for the fuel leak at the tank...o-rings on the pump) and they will get back to me.

I searched quite a bit but am coming up empty for a detailed parts diagram which shows the adjusting screw/o-ring. Any advice would be appreciated.

Also if that doesn't work a good contact at KTM USA will be plan B.

Thanks!

Jeff

options:

phone WP.

take out the adjuster screw, screw in a cloth, go buy the o-ring.

buy o-rings, 1.5 mm thick, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm and .5 in between and you might get lucky.


then, estimate how many ml fork oil you lost.
