seal

Came across this video, due to my inexperience I was curious what you guys thought. Could this be an option? or do the seals just need to be replaced when they start to leak? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wlzfoVroSY

My seal is dripping after I ride. How hard is it to change this??

I just had my bike lowered 2 inches in the front with progressive springs with no air pressure, last night on the way home while running 75 mph on the expressway I noticed a slight vibration in the front end and looked down to see fork oil leaking out of the left fork, when I press the handle...

Hey Sean I was wondering if you had two dist seals for 94 fzr 1000 6 pots.. Yamaha dealer says they come in sets 30 for big pistons 60 for small pistons.. I just need one of each.. when I was pushing in the pistons to put new pads on two of them came partially out.. I didn't know if you had...

My brother's 2007 V-Max is leaking coolant at the weep hole, which indicates to me that the mechanical seal is in need of replacement. I referred to the service manual and it lists the following special tools as needed: Yamaha Water pump Seal Installer (YM-04058-1 and YM-33221. Another...

I bought some bushmill's and a 6pk of labatt's 4 crank seal's and some window screen. Im hoping to have 4 velocity stack screens for $24.00 plus booze. LOL.

Hi guys, i have everything i need to change my seals and springs, just haven't had any time, i wanna tackle these this weekend and need to know what size pvc to drive the bushings and seals back in does sean use in his youtube video to reassemble the forks. I have 2" and 1-1/2 just want...

Is it possible to remove the oil seals on the forks of my 02 vmax without disassembling the forks. I only want to replace the seals not rebuild the whole system. Help

Little help on this, My left fork seal is leaking now the other part of it, when I leave the bike on the center stand it seems to leak alot when I first ride after it was on the stand... Now if I use the side stand it does not seem to leak at all. Is my seal leaking or something else? Thanks...

I bought a proper fork seal driver and got started but I'll be damned if I can get the bottom allen bolt out. I've hammered on it with a 1/2" impact but it doesn't budge. What is the next step to try? Is there a way to dig the old seal out and just replace it without disassembling the fork...

I really need to change the fork seals on my bike. I've watched Sean's videos and he refers to thin wall PVC pipe for a seal driver. No one around this area carries anything remotely close to the right size pipe and no one carries thin wall PVC except large drain pipe. Where in the hell do you...

How? Stretch it? Also that snap ring was a BITCH to get out! And I sprayed some WD-40 in there before I read to never never never use petroleum based stuff in there. I didn't get any on the new parts, can I just clean the thing out really good with brake cleaner?

Hey guys, is there an "easiest" way to get to shifter shaft seal to replace it? Or a quick fix that will get me through the season? I just got all the bugs worked out of my carbs and went out for a satisfying asphalt rip. Upon my return home I saw a drop fall from my shifter shaft. I took...

Does anyone change this seal without replacing the stuff on the other side of it (oil seal , bearing). I can't remember if it can be removed without removing the bearing and oil seal first.

Hey guys, sorry but I have another daft question for you. I have just replaced my steering head bearing and I paid good money for good Japanese bearings. There is no bottom dust seal with the bearings and unfortunaltey there is no old seal on my bike, it was just packed with grease. Haven't...

Hey all. I have started to an odd puff of oil smoke on start up So i am assuming that my valve guide stem seals might be leaking. - though it was a bit odd, two cylinders appeared to have oil fouled plugs, then i took it for a 20 mile ride and checked after and no wet oil look on any plugs -...

This thing is being an absolute BITCH coming out. Any suggestions. It is already destroyed. The bearing is out and the seal underneath is out. Just cant get the housing out. :bang head::bang head::bang head:

..I can't remember how the oil seal was installed (it's been along time since teardown and I don't know if I can even trust the way it was installed)..! Does anyone remember which way it goes?.. It's hard to tell from the Microfiche.. the 2 pics are from the engine side or gear side of the...

hey guys ive been having some fuel pump issues over the last couple weeks and ive come to find that one of my "nipple" seals is completely destroyed. i went to my local yamaha dealer and they said it is not rebuildable and that i would have to be an entirely new fuel pump. however, my fuel...

Hey All, I've got pretty much the hole rear end of my Max tore apart waiting to put in solid engine mounts. After tearing it all the way down, I replaced the oil seal and O ring on the middle gear assembly, which looked to be bad. Looking the rest of the bike over, my shifter seal was very...
