Shane, I got some from Race Tech and they were $62 (US) for the set, dust and oil for both fork legs.

They're cool too as they come with the grease already in them, ready to install. I still have mine since the dealer decided that he would warranty them AFTER I had already ordered the seals.

Don't know if you can get Race Tech down there for a reasonable cost but it's worth the try.

The seal is likely the same as that for the off road 50mm Shiver. Look for alternatives before you bend over for the ridiculous Ducati prices. I have 45mm Zokes on my GG and the OEM Zoke seal kit with wipers and retainer clips is less than $50 US, aftermarket even cheaper.

Maybe you get some new internals to go with the seals for free

Its nuts

Peg sliders are $60 each here but $30 a pair on ebay from italy

Surely shipping some stuff on a boat doesn't call for such a markup
