Better/Bad
I built it on 1198SP and it leaked.
I reassembled it again with the same Seal, but we'll see how it goes.
What I am concerned about is the packaging. I am concerned about whether it will affect the quality of the Rubber since everything is in a Bulk state and in a paired box, and the Quantity that Spacer purchased.:2 Of the Set, Quantity:There were not enough sheets for 1 Set. Perhaps they were left out. Also, my friend at the Rubber shop told me not to use Green Light because of composition issues.

Premium.
When we decided to use the front fork overhaul, we were not sure whether to go with the less expensive OEM or SKF.
When I opened the package and looked at the product, there was no BALIetc. at all, and the finish was very clean,
Also, during the overhaul, I inserted it into the inner fork and felt slightly less resistance than the OEM when moving it. As a result, SKF was the right choice.
The Dust Seal also has a Spring to prevent foreign objects from entering. The difference in the casual appearance is very satisfying.

At the time of Oh! SKF rather than OEM.
When Oh ??
I felt less Friction … and when I ran and looked at it, it was at about 80 km.
I felt that the road surface tracking was improved.
It's personal.

SKF Fork Seal Kit KITB-41K
The reduced sliding resistance can be felt when assembling the product.
I don't know how durable they are as I replace them every year.
Cost performance is not high.

SKF's Fork seal and Titaniumium coating's ForkInner were a great match.
Friction loss was very low and I could feel the suspension moving.

Leaking & hellip;?
I've used it a few times now and it leaked right away last time.
Specifically, the Inner Tube was fine right after the replacement, but on my first 200km touring trip home after the replacement, the Inner Tube was sticky on one side.
I've seen a lot of comments on the net about leaks, but I thought it must be a faulty assembly, but I never thought it would leak on me…
I took it to a motorcycle shop (an authorized dealer) because I didn't have any tools for some reason, but they told me that they don't use them because they might leak soon.
(However, this is not the response of the store Level, but the judgment of a Mechanic who personally experienced a leak on his own motorcycle.
It's true that the friction is lowered when you look at the Single Item, but it's not at a level that you can tell by actual driving, so there is no repeat.
Just absolutely bad! It's not so bad that I can say for sure that it's bad, but it's just an impression to avoid just in case, so I gave it an intermediate rating.
If it doesn't leak, I myself have a track record of not leaking at all (used it a few times in the past, no problems at all), so it's a difficult product to judge…
If it were at least cheaper, I might try it in the future for verification, but it's expensive…
