I had just bought the bike and put a few hundred miles on it when they started leaking. I'd guess that they had never been changed, and the odometer said something around 16,000 miles. The bike had spent time outdoors, and the dust seal steel under the rubber was badly rusted. I suspect rust flakes and debris probably did the seals in. Luckily the fork tubes were in good condition.
