Some folks will swear by OEM seals...others by a good aftermarket brand, like K&L. Some members have had bad luck with all aftermarket brands. Others, like myself, have had reasonably good experiences with K&L. OEM are more expensive than aftermarket brands.

K&L fork seals etc are made in Japan & oem quality.
In every instance of which I'm aware, problems have arisen w fork seals made elsewhere, such as China or Taiwan; BikeMaster is one such brand to avoid.

Z1Enterprises.com no longer lists the K&L fork seals, but they can get them. I emailed them about the change just this week. They're carrying a made-in-Formosa brand on their site now because of pricing pressures - everybody wants stuff cheap.
