Topic: rear chain sprocket seal

[Lbush]

Can anyone tell me if i can replace this rear sprocket seal without opening up the case.

It can be done ...
Oil the seal and case.
You need a large socket or fabricated tool to slowly tap the seal in straight.

To remove, I’ve punched in a pair of tiny holes, opposite to each other. Then screw in a sharp, #10 size, large screw, in both holes. With a small pry bar, slowly back them out. A small carpenter’s style bar, with a small “V” but in the end, works best. Also works well to remove sticky, old fork seals!

Install the screws very near the outside diameter of the seal. They usually have a metal ring in there.

One more question for you guys.
Motor has 8000 miles on it. Sprocket seal isnt leaking but Ive got the motor on the bench and a new seal.
Im certain youd say replace it. ??

It can be done in the bike...... lube it with some oil and leave it alone.

if that's the case, I'll leave it alone. Thanks for all your help.
