Great video. I bought the counter shaft seal replacement part and cleaned everything up but the seal that is leaking is where the shift lever is so now I have to research that. Probably a similar procedure.
Definetly helpful video like all of yours! I learned a lot from your channel :)Thanks for all. Also one question. Im 16 and im 120lbs. I ride 250f. What kind of workout would you recommend for my arms?
+Xtreme I like body weight stuff, do pull ups, push ups dips.. don't use any grip help, that way you will build strength in your hands and forearms too. Start there and see how it goes. Diet is the key, make sure you eat enough. Later maybe start adding some weight training if you feel like it. Good luck !
sometimes the aftermarket countershaft sprockets are thinner than the ktm ones (the last ktm one i bought was also too thin) and there will be no pressure on the oring inside. A fix is you can make your own crude spacer out of tin cans. I had to use 2 to get enough oring pressure.
@@nexxpe my countershaft sprockets are the correct thickness but it still leaked. i just ended up making my own very thin washers out of a tin can. needed about 0.2 to 0.3mm to get enough pressure on the oring.
Yep. I found that the retainer clip was too thin, no it allowed the sprocket to move. Replaced it with an OEM factory clip which was just barely thicker, and now everything is solid.
Might be a dumb question but if I had a bad seal, would the sprocket have to be spinning in order to leak? I’ve whipped everything down and let the bike idle for a while and it’s dry as a whistle, do you think I’m good to go?
before you work on it, give your bike nice wash and inspect it carefully to prevent any dirt getting in. If you are asking about getting dirt in during riding, I think seal will prevent that from happening, even leaky seal should keep dirt out.
I have a 2004 ktm 250sx and I think this might be what's giving me a headache on my bike! Is there any way I can send you a video or photos so you can help me out with what I'm going through?
So I bought this kit and it came with two o ring options, thick o ring and the stock o ring. There was also a note that came with the kit saying I should use the thicker o ring. Should I?
you supposed to mention that you don’t drive the seal in to far as it goes until it stopped because if you put it in to far it will lock up yours sprocket shaft , japan bikes have a stopper so you can’t drive it to far it will stop where it needs it to 🤦🏼♂️
