I'm putting a R1 front end on an XS850 for a cafe project and using the stock XS wheels. Using RC51 bearings allowed that to be a pretty straight forward swap but the problem I have is oil seals. One side of the wheel will accept the RC51 seal no problem, but the other side has a counterbore for the speedo drive so I need a different oil seal. Any websites that give oil seal dimensions by bike model? Parts guys who can help? I need a seal that is 56mm OD x 30mm ID x 8mm W.
Brain fart... I measured the seal, decided it was 29mm ID but couldn't find that. Found the 30mm ID though & thought that might work if needed. I just looked at the p/n and it is in fact a 30mm ID. And I even put 30mm in my OP... <shakes head, walks away> Thanks
I admire the project. I have a 78 XS750 that I bought new, built and raced as a Superbike with a 920 kit, cam, smoothbores etc... They were cool bikes.
