Lucky Phil Posted February 6, 2017 Author Posted February 6, 2017 That bike sat for about three years in Indiana, which has some bitter cold winters. Here's the seal I removed from it. The inner part has a wave pattern with 5 crests to complete the circle. You can see two of the crests in the photo. IMG_5801.jpg I was going to mention but questioned my own vision... Lucky Phils photo of the seal with "faint lines" looked to me as going in both directions, IE - wave. Yes footgoose I think you are correct. Ciao
Lucky Phil Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Hey scud any photos of the new seals yet? Ciao
Scud Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 No, sorry - my order hasn't arrived yet. And I'm going to be away early next week.

Lucky Phil Posted March 11, 2017 Author Posted March 11, 2017 Received my new gearbox OEM seals the other day and they are apart from looking like they've been on a dusyt shelf for 50 years identical to Scuds in design. Now to get some time to remove the generic one and install the oem. Hopefully to last longer than a couple of thousand K's. Ciao
