I just rebuild my front forks with racetech springs, intimonators and new seals and it feels like there is a light coat of oil appearing on the tube where in compresses. not dripping or showing around the seal but just on the part of the tube that goes inside the lower fork. Do I have a problem or is this normal?

 

No way of knowing. Wipe clean and keep an eye on it. A tiny amount of oil can travel a long way given time and make things look far worst that they really are. You may just have a tiny spill or drip that is having fun with ya!

 

+1 as GR above wrote.

Wipe it and moniter.

Could also closely look at the seals for a tear or like damage.
