I've done the fork seals on my bike (twice) and it's not hard just involved. Basically the whole front end has to come apart.

I just recently bought a set of the Michelin Anakee 2's:

Regarding 'other advice' - I collected some good tips from the TigerTriple forum - but I hasten to add that I have a 1995 Tiger! And she's still going strong... Here you go: Birdy's Tiger T400
