Had read similar stories about replacing seals, then 6 months later they're leaking so keen to get it right. Also considering doing it myself so want it to last.
Aprilia dealers, let alone good ones seems hard to find. If I can't find any SKF seals will hit up Aprilia Performance as they're good eggs and haven't let me down yet. Thanks for the confirmation.

@jambon - definitely worth noting on your Aprilia dude. I did a set of OEM seals on my mate's 09 Tuono and they lasted less than 6 months. One of the scrapers had completely separated. I remember they felt a bit hard when I put them in. Went with Showa aftermarket ones the next time and they were notably more pliable. Same seals, just not sat on a shelf in Dallas for 10 years.
....just noticed. You have the gold...get them from an ohlins tech, not the Ape dealer.
