100k ago I changed out the fork seals on my '81 750K.

They were delivered (promptly) from vintage CB750 cycle parts; I have used these guys for several items and they seem good so far...
Both seals are already leaking however.

I might just order another pair and try a different installation technique; unless anyone else has had trouble with seals from this company?

It may not be the seals at all. I replace the bushings on the fork tubes so the sliders don't rock back and forth on the seals and make them leak. If the brass is worn off they're worn out.
