Crank shaft oil seals

Post by Mr Bonehead »

Hi all,finally managed to get the crank out ,left side seal has collapsed ,you can move it up and down and the spring is hanging out ,noticed the pistons were scored and the right hand one has damage to the skirt so going to replace them,any recommendations regarding make would be appreciated ,don’t want to sell a kidney to buy NOS ones though πŸ˜€
Cheers MrB

There's nothing wrong with Cruzin Image stuff.

Hi

When I buy off the website, you usually get the costs at checkout?

I'd second that recommendation for pistons. I usually use OEM Suzuki seals but will probably try Crusin for the next one. I like their stuff.

Hi Teazer,thanks for the reply,I used to see the cruizng image stuff on eBay but think I saw a forum post saying they weren't using eBay so put a delivery of $1000 so you bought direct ,maybe wrong ,it was on a US bike forum
