Hawk 250 Fork Seal Issues
 
Has anyone had the seals on their hawk 250 shocks start to crack and seperate? Does anyone know if you can find replacements or how to fix this issue? Thanks ahead of time!

The seals are cracking? Or do you mean the gaiters? The gaiters cracking is fairly common....ARH

Ha-Hah! For your information, gaiters go above the boot or shoe. Anyway, it doesn't matter. The original poster has not been heard from since his first, and only, question....ARH

ive replaced shock seals on these china bikes. I had one leak cause I compress the shock allot when loaded in the truck/ the seals are replaceable. they were something like 30mm seals from Honda. I used ordinary hand tools to replace. take it apart and measure the seal. an experienced bike shop can help you get the right ones.

The bike companys don't make seals they buy them just like you can..
