I am a newbie and have read through every thread I can find on this topic and saw a few YouTube videos. I was so excited to get this bike and before I could even ride it noticed the oil was milky. I have a few questions that have not been answered in the threads I have read and the videos I have watched:
-I ended up ordering the parts out of England- does anyone know a good US source for parts?
-There are two seals (though one place selling a water pump kit said there is just one). Several questions related to this
- I have seen the threads about covering up the shaft with heat shrink- any other tips on assembly that will help?
-One video where the guy really knows bergs said to put in side seal with flat surface out, outside seal with flat surface facing in.
- any tips for assembly related to the bearing and the order of installing bearing and seals?
The bearing disintegrated and the bearing balls were in the engine- I got most of them - but not sure if there are any remaining - anyone else had this experience and any suggestions other than a complete tear down?
Thanks
