I was going to replace the brake pads on my Ninja, but I gave in to my conscience and I'm going to replace all the caliper and master cylinder seals while I'm at it.

I've seen after market kits for these things (for eg. All Balls) but I am leaning towards OEM parts. They're a little harder to get and more expensive, but I think I'd feel better about it.

Does anyone have any experience or advice on using OEM vs. aftermarket kits for brake seals?

Going by the manual, it looks like I'll be needing these:

front caliper:
seal 43049-1060
seal 43049-1061

rear caliper:
seal 43049-1063
seal 43049-1064

front master cyl:
complete piston assembly 43020-1095
snap ring 43022-1010
seal 49016-1044

rear master cyl:
complete piston assembly 43020-1057

banjo washer 49091-0001

Anything else I've missed? Thanks!
