look over your fork tube for nicks ,scratches, maybe you need new fork bushings.

test the fork tube in a set of V-blocks with a runout gauge to see if it is not bent. Any decent shop can do this for you - will tell you if fork tubes are true. If bushings and other parts are okay try using no-leak seals and some good quality fork oil. I had this same problem on my WR250 and it drove me nuts. Fork was slightly bent. Good luck!
