1100 fork seal alternatives?

[Hambo]

Now in Peru, (no BMW dealer) and need to replace my fork seals.

Would anyone know the specific dimensions or seal number for the 1100 fork seals, BMW part No. 31 42 2 311 988? From what I can conclude the seal has an outside diameter of 48mm and an inside diameter of 35mm. Don't know the seal height as they're still in the bike.

Cheers,
Hamish

Fork seals

There is no damping done by oil in the forks so tie some rag around leg above each seal to prevent it running on the disc, try moto bins or motor works to send a pair out by DHL. Have just returned from Peru and S.A. and this was don by another member of the trip. Good luck and whatch out for Lama's.
