Very easy no need to strip forks either, just remove said fork/s and remove dust cover/s, then pop out spring retainer and drive 2/3 small long self tapping screws into seal and gently pull it up with pliers or grips out of fork tube, if in doubt tape card around tanchions to protect.

plenty on ebay, just make sure you get right year and model ;)

What i also should of said :roll: is are the stanchions free from rust pits and scratches on the area of seal travel :?: , because if not then new seals won't last long :!:

As long as its a 1982 Suzuki GXS750S Katana with standard forks should be these

or seals and dust caps

but to double check measure to see if stanchions are 35mm

Fit genuine Suzuki seals or you'll be fitting another set in no time at all!
