Are gen 1 and gen 2 fork seals the same? It’s hard to find gen 1 seals online. I see a lot of complete kits from Suzuki for gen2’s but nothing for gen 1. Some aftermarket guys list all years as compatible for their seals so that got me wondering. Want to stay Suzuki on the seals...

am shure - they´r 100% equal in size and form - did the change, i guess, now 20 or 30 times and no matter what type - 1or 2 - they were.

Pretty pricey for just seals. Seems like the all balls seals don’t have great reviews either. Might have to just visit the dealer for this.
If anyone can confirm they have used gen2 fork seals on a gen1 that would be great or if anyone knows the dimensions of the seals..

Don't cheap out on fork seals. Totally not worth the aggravation.I've had peepul insist on saving a couple bucks ordering the cheap ones. Some of them leaked imediately or soon after.

yeah @rubbersidedown
allways trying to save some 2 or 3 bucks can bring you sometimes some trouble
my personal thinking is :
cheap means (for me) to have to buy it twice ( in the worst you bought crap ) and have to do same work twice
inexpensive means (for me) the piece you bought is worth its price, no matter what price man had to pay

@Berlin Germany true that right. Fork seals is NOT a 15 minute job. 
And why would you want to do it again a week later.
Hard to understand peoples thinking sometimes....
I just saved 10 dollars on fork seals....

I notice - we are pretty much agreed on what inexpensive really means
but - the stupid never die out
