Fork seals

Could someone please tell me what kind of fork seals work best on our bikes? Original suzuki ones only lasted a very short time. Thanks
 
I use "All Balls" seals.
They are a 3 lip design and work really well.
Also about half the cost of OEM
 
If the OEM Suzuki's only lasted a short time perhaps they weren't installed correctly or just abused. Mine were rode hard and lasted 2 years before the left side started a slow leak. Lots of wheelies but careful setting them down, if you splash the front down a lot the seals won't hold up no matter what brand they are.

Also keep in mind the type of weather you ride in can have an impact on their life. Road grime and salt can contribute to premature wear on the seals if junk gets past the dust seals.
 
The Suzuki ones are $31 at the local dealer haven't seen the All Balls ones cheaper. What are you paying and where is the cheapest place to get them? Thanks
