Might need to measure a new one for the exact specs.

Yes, the O-ring around the lever is what my question is about. does anyone know the specs? Thanks

None of my Yamaha's have an o-ring there, its a rather strange o-ring shaped piece but it's semi-flat with a skirt.

Ok, is it just me or does the name of the part just make one cringe? I don't need a seal for that quite yet. When I do, I don't think I'll be riding anymore, or if I do, I'll wear depends.

Well, thanks for all the replies but what I was hoping for was the dimensions so as to find a cheaper alternative. I'll measure the old broken one I guess.

Be very careful, as that part has gas behind it, and most o-rings are NOT going to be gas safe. It's better IMHO to spend the extra on the right part, than to put a cheap part that may not hold the gas back properly.
