Leaking fork on Suzuki Savage 95'?

Question

I recently noticed my right fork had an unusual amount of wet residue and ignored it, it got to the point where after a ride i could see a brown/yellowish liquid oozing down which is obvioiusly my fork fluid. Theres a gap between the seal and the fork. (see picture)

Is this possible to fix myself?

If not how much would this cost to repair?

Answer 1

The leak has probably ruined your brake pads, so you will have to replace those as well.

Answer 2

You're the guy selling the red one for $1250 in Burbank, right?  You should just add "AS IS" to your "FOR SALE" sign.  The leak is pretty obvious;  I noticed it right away when I stopped to look at your bike last weekend.  Do you really really get 60 mpg?

But yeah, I betcha that the North Hollywood place would charge about $120 to replace your fork seals, change fork oil.
