    you cant go wrong with oem parts. look how long the first set lasted. but if price is a concern then all balls racing has fork seals for $13.19 the part number forour bike is 55-108 the web site is www.goallballs.com , ive used there wheel bearings and am thourally satisfied. might be worth looking in to. also alot of atv and some motorcycle shops are dealers ( you can check for the closest places on the web site), i ordered from an atv shop so i woulnt have to pay s&h; took about 3 days to come in. good luck.

      it was recommended to me by one of the pros here to get "leak proof" or "leak proof pro moly" fork seals. i recently changed the seals, and it was easy as pie to do. they cost little more than the oem, and are reusable and guaranteed for life.

      i think it was bwringer that suggested them.

      i got mine from bikebandit....here is a link. be sure to verify that this fits your bike, but you get the idea, i just wanted to show you the product.

          I've had good luck with the "Leak Proof Pro Moly" seals.

          Just remember to install them gently with your fingers. You can't pound them in like regular seals or they'll leak.
