I need to replace my fork/dust seals, and my budget is pretty limited. Can anyone recommend somewhere I can get some decent cheap ones that will work for the GS? I'd like to replace both the oil and dust seals, as well as the oil itself. I think I'll just get the oil from a store around here though. Also, if I change to 15w oil, do I still put the same amount of oil in as with 10w?
Thanks,

will gs500e (pre 02) seals fit my 04 gs500f?
Go to your local parts unlimited dealer, you should be able to pick up a pair for about $10. I would go with the Parts Unlimited brand. Stay away from the "Leak Proof" :bs: seals though, they are more money, and they always leak. :mad:
I just went down to the dealership and got mine. I haven't had any problems. O0
my dealership wants a lot more money than I want to spend on them. For both fork and dust seals I'd end up paying like $80 for a set of each probably.
the dust shields were fairly cheap from bikebandit.com
Check for the seals also. I KNOW that you can get the seals for at the least 30 off of ebay.
I'll probably wait until next month when I have some more money to buy this stuff. Just get em from bike bandit, and I'll got some progressive springs too. That way I can ride around a bit now with my leaking seals, wear out the stock spring and just replace it next month.

dunno... Maybe I'll cave in earlier and replace them sooner
Got mine off ebay. No problems so far.
