Specialty shop will save you money over HD dealer.

Ducati uses the same forks so they have tools and experience. Mine were done by the local Ducati tech for about $150. I supplied the seals.

Not a hard job if you have some basic tools. You will need to remove forks.
Seals are pretty cheap and available through American Sport Bike. You will need a seal driver, and depending on where you get one, they can cost a few bucks. Blown seal is a warranty item, if you are covered.

Saw it on BW - amazing resource! The warranty covers almost everything except wear items.
