Anyone ordered the fork seal set from service honda part # 51490-m62-872? I ordered 2 of them but I thought the set included enuff parts to do both forks but from what the parts guy said one set does one fork. I thought that was kind of expensive at $17 per set but I'm not sure what will be included in the kit.

I don't have any extra swinger bolts, sorry. I'm actually in need of one as well.

yes...that number is for one set which is one side only and yes they are expensive but i did build my forks with aftermarket seals(ultra seals) ment to be great they leaked after about 3 hours use...so ordered 2 sets from servicehonda.....they have been on the R for many hours now without a leak..... the oem seals are better than aftermarket jobs although they were nealy twice the price

I'll second that. I redid my 350x forks with aftermarket seals and they lasted about 6 trips. The oem seals are 100% better.
