How much fluid and do you store upside down?

its not a great deal when ive been out but it is leaking, the bike is upside down for five mins tops when i take wheels and chain off for cleaning, and in that time it is worse it drips down onto my leavers.

PIKEO

I would say its the seal IMO, but maybe wrong, have you e-mailed Rockshox?

My guess is it's coming up between the lockout/compression adjuster and floodgate? It's a common problem (see RS's own FAQ) and easily fixed with a bigger o-ring under the adjusters.

It's by no means dangerous or damaging.
