Thanks so far ... the regular XS110 fork dust covers are indeed different.
As are the seals! I think someone's put the wrong ones in as they almost fell out!
The oil got pumped out and lubricated the rotors/discs, soaked the pads etc.
I can get original fork seals at some cost (+/- £90 GBP) from https://www.cmsnl.com/yamaha-xs1100s...8717/partslist

I've ordered a pair, and will do an update in a few days .... Meanwhile the dust covers yet to be solved ..... the ones I've got are in good condition but worn and a bit loose on the tube. There's scope to glue a 37mm O-ring on the inside as a last resort ...
The fork seals from Yambits are perfect - double lip design for the air-assisted forks (37 X 48 X 10.5 mm) . Fitted with thinner lower spacer and thicker upper, spring clips seats perfectly.
WRT Dust seals Yam Part no. 10M2314400 .... I've had no luck with cruzinimage.net - I tried to order but kept getting told my email address was wrong!
I've found 1x NOS on ebay UK (£15 with shipping) awaiting arrival.
Also tried a Jap co called YUMBO but they say discontinued.

After you enter the new user data, there is button like "Go to the next" at the bottom. Click on this button and it goes back to the top of the same page where you enter your password like an established user. I got it to work last night by doing that. It took a couple of try's for it to accept it- don't know if I made a mistake the first time.
