Assuming you have a jack, basic tools and preferably somewhere off the street to work then you should be able to do this yourself. Investing in tools will be cheaper in the long run than garage prices.
As ever, my mate Del has at least one video on it. Of course not all forks are the same but most can be done like this.
As for gaiters, they aren't really necessary for road riding. Mostly for looks in my opinion.

Back with more noob questions!
My fork seals need replacing.
From looking online this looks like something I could probably do, but not without a garage and some sort of stand. I don’t have either. So is it best to take it to a shop?
If the seals are being replaced is it worth adding gators?
I’ve passed my theory and looking to book my mod 1 and mod 2 (I am over 24).
I spoke to http://www.londonmotorcycletraining.co.uk and they said they usually advise 2 days training, mod 1, then mod 2. Possibly with a day before the mod 2.
I did a mod 1 practice session about 3yrs ago. I’m half wondering if I could just go ahead and do my mod 1 and then book some lessons and the mod 2.
Anyone got any recommendations for the best way to do it?
