Yep, i believe so. Picked my old Kawasaki up today, it's been in their workshop for the last three weeks, as they've serviced and resprung the forks, MOT'd it & it's spent countless hours on their dyno to setup the carbs. It's a little difficult to work out all the separate elements of the bill but my understanding at the time was a quote of £160.00 for a ride in ride out fork service.
Forks feel brilliant as well, unfortunately more F@ckin rain stopped play.

Update. Took the forks to Steve Jordan on Monday and they did it while I waited. Very small little place, but was made to feel very welcome, had lots of tea and coffee, and there were lots of bike mags to read.
The **** at the desk had slightly mis quoted me, as she quoted for only one seal. And there was an additional half hour labour to pay too, as whoever had been in the forks last had managed to squash a nut on the damping rod! But again Steve came out the,workshop to show me himself.
So all in all it came to 181quid to loose forks, inc the gsxr k4 seals. Really knew his stuff and was happy to explain the ins and outs of anything you cared to ask with no ego.
Got the forks back in the bike and very happy! Massive improvement in feel and grip, esply when braking due to how smoothly the fork passes through first part of the stroke. And that's on the base setting he gave me, without setting sag!
Highly recommended.
Thanks to the guys that suggested him! I'll be going there again.
