VALVE STEM OIL SEALS

Post by oiledaplug »

Hi chaps,
Im having trouble locating a set of valve oil seals for Superfour/Cb-1. Ive ordered a set from hong kong via ebay, but after 4 weeks wait---- nothing. I,ll get a refund and buy elsewhere when i can locate some at a sensible price. Dave silver wants around £6.50 EACH. Cant find any others on ebay,apart from the hong kong ones, so hoping you chaps could point me in the right direction.

thanks, and merry xmas, JEZ

If you get desperate ive a mate that works for a bearing / seal company and he maybe able to help but would involve sending me a old seal.
Ive seals from a couple of Suzuki's so could compare them at the same time as alot of bikes use the same seal, usually 4.2mm or 4mm on the 4's.
