The Rumored SKF Oil Seal Story

Hearing quite favorable rumors about it
 

 
“SKF FORK SEAL KIT”
Three sets for the GSF1200 and one set for the GS1000S
 

 
Pretty minimal packaging—the seals are right there in the box
The dust seal comes with a spring too
 

 
The oil seal side has springs on the outside as well—pretty standard these days, I’d say.
They happen to make a 40 mm version
My GS1000S has a Yoshimura KYB 40 mm fork
I had them measure the spare seal and check if SKF would be close
I think it should work out
I’d also like to switch the machined 41 mm fork from the other day to SKF
If this can reduce low friction and leaks even a little
everyone’s wallet will be happy
