I was looking at them for fork/dust seals, but hadn't had a reply in a couple of weeks. I went to their site and it's down. US and UK sites still work. I really don't want to pay double for OEM seals, but I also don't want to throw cash down a vortex. Is this a problem?
That's a shame, @Linkin. Bad quality? Is there anyone you'd recommend? I can get OEM, but it's super expensive, comparatively.
Extremely long shipping time, zero return contact, lots of negative feedback on ebay and the fork seals leaked. Vowed never to use them again. OEM are probably the most expensive but guaranteed to work. There's heaps of stuff available on ebay https://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=suzuki+across+fork+seals
I bought a new pair of fork seal's from my local bike shop last week for $35, they ordered them at 3pm on wednesday and they arrived thursday lunch time. The brand is A1 Power Part's, the quality was excellent, fitted well and they came with some special grease to use on the inner lip's to prevent wear. They were a firm fit in the tube's, and haven't lost a drip of oil ( I took it for a 50km test ride after doing the seal's) I priced original seal's from Yamaha and they were $32 for the pair but would have taken a week to arrive
The big four Japanese OEMs use seals made by NOK, you can often find them on the Internet if you know the dimensions you want. NOK really are the best, with NAK (another Japanese factory) not far behind. Everything else is asking for leaky forks much sooner than expected, and the cheap single lipped seals are so stiff they can be really hard to fit properly.
