woo hoo, I get the first review!!
This is a review of leak proof seals Incorporated "pro-moly" fork seals
they are guaranteed to not leak for as long as you own your bike or life!!
the seals perform as advertised they are very tough and with stand incredible abuse, my first experience with the promoly seals was with my yamaha dirt bike that had a bad habit of eating factory fork seals due to the abuse I put it through, I was getting tired or replacing seals when I was told to give the pro moly seals a try, I did and they are still in the bike 5 years later.
they have withstand-ed everything I have thrown at them and have yet to ooze mutchless leak, and in those five years I have not had to even add any air to the forks.
my GS experience with them is new, during the Oktoberfest Texas GS ride, last october my right fork developed a leak , I disassembled my forks, cleaned and reassembled them using factory suzuki seals, the factory seal lasted just over a week before it started to leak
I disassembled it again and discovered this time a very small nick in the inner tube, but due to the impending spring GS get together was unable to replace the fork tube and put a factory seal back and hoped it would hold for the ride, it failed in a big way three days latter 
.
due to low funds and the desire to keep riding till I could get a new inner fork tube I remembered the leak proof seals and decided to put a set in till I could replace the tube.
I ordered a set and was surprised to learn that they cost nearly half of what the factory seals cost!!
the leak proof seals have been in for seven days now and they are holding perfectly.
the leak proof pro- moly seals are a two piece seal consisting of a seal and a retaining washer.
the included instructions are complete but can be confusing due to the fact that they cover the installation of all types of fork seals not just the instructions for the suzuki GS seals.
