I've been using All Balls seals for a while now without any issues and they are only about $25.00
There are different OEM KTM seals available, some have been terrible for stiction.

Thats a good price, can you get them for the 43mm wp's?

[scott411]

pretty sure they do them as well

Yeah they are available for the 43's. I haven't used them in the 43's though as I've had some stock of the Synergy Seals which are a superior seal for those but I'm not restocking them anymore since they changed their seal design. So I will try the All Balls in the 43's next time but to be honest I don't get much of those older forks in these days. Shame because I prefer them to the 48's once they are worked over.
Do not use the All Balls dust seals. They are real crap!

KTM/WP use NOK seals; bought aftermarket they are cheaper. Still $50+ per pair.

Go see Linton at DAS (you are in cantab, no?), or call him. He recommends a tighter dust seal, NOK still but OEM for KYB (Kayaba?).

yes bumped into Linton before i had KTM and he did mention something about japanese seals do the job better.
will give him a bell....cheers.
