Fork Seal Kits (VMX17)

[xantonin]

It seems fork seals are a common replacement item on here but I'm having a harder time finding any available. I was pretty happy with All Balls Racing for my other bikes, but they don't make any for the VMAX. What brands are you all using for oil and dust seals?

I don't know what year Vmax you have but I just bought a set All Balls Racing fork seals for my 1989 off eBay.

The title says VMX17, so he has an '09+ Vmax. I didn't see any aftermarket options in a couple pages of Google results, so OEM might be the only way to go. https://www.partzilla.com/catalog/yamaha/motorcycle/2014/vmax-vmx17egy/front-fork

yup, I have a 2012 so Gen2, and that was my experience trying to find aftermarket ones.

I only suggest OEM only which are still available. I should have them on hand if you have trouble with your local dealer.
