or anyone else who may know how to change fork seals on a zx7r?

one of the seals has gone on my 7r,

have ordered a replacement so me n baz are gonna change it aswell as change oil in forks on weekend

question is, are they pretty much the same to do as a zxr400 and zxr750? cuz baz has experience doing both of those fork seals

just planning ahead trying to find out as much as i can before we strip them down

but another says u do not need to do this if u r only changing the seal????
