I did mine (Hyper forks) earlier this year and it was actually quite easy!

Hardest bit was compressing them down to put them back together again, covered in oil and everything is slippery!!!

I ordered oil from ebay (the owners manual had it in I think, but it may have been the workshop manual...) and had to buy a specific fork top tool from the states but it was about a tenner posted.
