Seals are easy as they are the same as one of the RGV250's amongst others. Part number is 51153-08D00 so Google that.
Do you have tubes already that are just poor condition? I would get them hard chromed by AM Philpotts if so, much better than the Chinese ones. I had 3 sets done on various bikes (including the 400) last winter, £220 a set including pickup and delivery back.

Dust seal part number is 51571-47D50. Available in the UK, but at £34 each!

I would also get the stanchions rechromed.
