I'm worried by the amount of dirt I'm getting n my Rockshox Duke C forks. They don't have the rubber boots like many other forks and I'm concerned dirt'll get into the internals, before I try cleaning it, is there anything I need to know, I'm mostly worried about breaking the bushings. By the way, I have tried to fit lizard skins to keep them clean but they do not fit!!
Thanx for any help!!

Go to your LBS and order some fork boots this will work in addition to the dust wipers incorporated in the forks design.
