35mm Fork Seals & Wipers Source

pjc · Sep 18, 2019

I'm inclined to buy fork seals & wipers from Partzilla as they are Yamaha sourced parts. MikesXS has these parts also.

I'm asking for opinions or experience using Mikes seals vs Partzilla Yamaha seals.

Thanks in advance.

I see Mike's gives you two choices now, aftermarket and original O.E.M. I've used their aftermarket ones (Parts Plus brand) and never had any issues with them. Both sets are cheaper from Mike's than from Yamaha. The same can't be said for most of the other oil seals they sell, they charge more than Yamaha .....

Don't forget about 650 CENTRAL (he's supposed to have an improved, lower striction seal) and all balls.

SKF is the best seal you can buy, but unfortunately, they aren't made for the XS....

I appreciate the feedback guys. I'll order from Mikes to support Mikes support of the XS community by providing parts for us.

I've done good with parts pyramid brand seals on a fair number of different bike brands, models.

Seals and bearings I always use all balls. They have the best workmanship.
