Coolant pipes
Can anyone tell me if you have to buy genuine Yamaha O rings for the coolant pipes at the back of the engine or are they a readily available standard size. Two look okay but the smaller two are cracking.
Cheers

Re: Coolant pipes
You can probably still buy them from Yamaha for not too much money.

Re: Coolant pipes
You could measure them and buy them loose
If you don't have one a digital vernier can be had for a tenner from Maplins, invaluable tool.

Cheers, they are still readily available from Yamaha as they are used on loads of other models. Cheap as chips

Re: Coolant pipes
A box of generic O rings of various sizes should be in any self respecting motorcyclists garage.
I think they cost the princely sum of £10.
