If you must have WP parts, FWIW, *list* on the KTM seal kit (per leg) is ~$66 for the 50mm WP's. P/N R906. You should be able to get them for ~$50 each if you shop around.

I've always have great luck with Synergy seals myself anyway.

In other words: That's too damn much for the bike and maintainence.

From Rob's post I'm guessin' that he didn't have them when I posted that back in the summer of '06... ya Spanish luvin' wanker...

And here's one of your Sherco engineers working on the "Joint Venture" issue...

Ohlins fork seals here in France $46 each....and don`t even think about buying Ohlins Oil for the forks....

I do not work for or have any affiliation with synergyseals.
I am just a very happy costomer.
I've used these seals on both my 450 EXC and my 640 Adv and have had great success compared to stock seals.

This is another company which does the unexpected.
I orded what I thought were the correct seals for my 640 Adv, first set comes in and they were the wrong size, it was a sunday afternoon. I called the support line, left a message and they called me that afternoon and said they ship a new set out on monday and to just ship back the others...

Hard to believe, yet tiss true.

Just my 2Cents.

Thats Serge. He's a Sherco trials bike engineer. The Sherco enduro engineers are all meth-heads.

I just ordered a fork oil seal for my duke II and it was only $18!

I hope I ordered the correct part

Alpiv, could you post what year, make and model bike you have, and what seals worked for you?

I'm looking for a set for my 50mm WPs on my 2000 LC4. No luck getting a hold of Rob yet.

I just want to make sure I order the correct ones.

Thanks,
cj
