Just removed the seals from my clutch cover (waterpump, shift, kick seals) and noticed they all seem to be oil seals but with metal outer ring/casing.
My questions is, do they have to have the metal casings?? Anyone know?
they seem to be better with them. just a bit. i would check the gearchange in the bush as well. it can get really loose. also, i find 100% of bikes in the UK run a fat 'O' ring in the kickstart and not a seal.
