Is a special tool required to either remove or install fork seals?

There are tools but be very careful. If you scratch the fork tube in any way, you're hosed. You'll have a permanent leak. Do this, take the forks off the bike and take it to a dealer. The labor cost isn't much and they will do it right. Also, if you have someone besides a Suz dealer do it get the Suz fork seals, there are some bad aftermarket ones out there.

Anyone using the HoleShot seals? Whats do you think of those?

I'm sure the Holeshot seals are fine, Dale has a reputation to uphold. Some of the discount houses have some off brands that I've been told to avoid.
