Question Regarding Fork Oil Change

[BenFZ6]

I'm going to be changing my fork oil this weekend. Is it worth while to change my fork seals as well since I will have the forks off the bike? They are not currently leaking and I have about 13,000 miles on my bike.

I don't think it's worth doing it , wait till they leak then do the whole thing.

I changed mu fork oil much later than you are. The oil stunk but no leaks.

I flushed them several times with fork oil till all the gunk came out, but I agree
with Joe, its not needed.

It's a much bigger job tearing them down vs just an oil change.

22k miles plus, seals are nice and dry...
