Changing fork seals on 2004 BDM Ridgeback heard there is a harley seal works just fine and easier to get. But don't no if true or not, does anybody no for sure and have a size nobbyjohn.

41 mm is what you need. Get the rebuild kit because if you havent cleaned under your covers the snap ring is rusty and need replaced.
I just replaced mine and found the chrome worn :bang:

Hope I cleaned it up enough so it doesnt leak right away so I will now need to replace my down tubes or have them rechromed :bang: if they leak

For future reference get some Dyna Beads from bdmridgeback (Low Down Chop Shop) no need to have the wheels balanced.

I have never balanced my tire rim (bead it and be gone)
