Right fork seal leaking.  Any advice for replacing with something better than the factory part
or tricks to do the job right?

1) Dont buy from the Ducati dealer. They will rip you off. That's the most important advice of all.

2) Take the money you will have saved by doing it yourself and get some linear springs suited for your weight and throw the stock ones out.

 Agreed, don't go to the dealership!

I went to a suspension shop when my seals leaked. They rebuilt the forks with new springs for my weight along with the shock, for under $400. My local Ducati dealership quoted me twice that price and would out source the work.
