I wanted the sizes so I could go to a seal shop and get the same thing for £2 rather than "super special Yamaha fork seals" for a tenner

They're exactly the same... Yamaha etc just over charge for them because they're "Genuine Yamaha"

I have ~20000 kms on standard seals bought by the sizes above. No problems yet.

I agree. Its the same for nuts, bolts, washers, bearings and gaskets. Yamaha (and everyone else) rip the arse out it when you can buy perfectly good quality, British or Japanese made, stuff for buttons.

Worst part is Yamaha etc don't even make them, they just buy them from the same places and put them in nice little genuine Yamaha bags!
