Does anyone know what size O-ring is on the bolt for the cct? Mine is leaking after replacing it with one I thought was the correct size.

double stack for that inner taper. Use an o-ring having smaller dia. that fits bout half way into taper. Then the outer one. Won't leak this way. Better yet would be to change out the stock tensioner for an auto- tensioner. Besides cams being in time ALL the time, that ugly oil seek will dissapear too.Originally posted by GLoweVA View PostFor the Stock CCT the o-ring part number is: 93210-06632-00

For now I'm thinking about doing the 30 minute cam chain tensioner mod and see how that goes. Here is the link http://www.xs11.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35497USMC 2005 - Present

I just re-adjusted the cam chain tension this weekend and the tensioner has started to leak. I also noticed that the PO had installed the tensioner upside down (the bolt comes out on the left side of the bike instead of the right).
Do you suppose the direction of installation makes much difference?
The PO had globed RTV all over the lock nut and bolt, is it just an O-ring that goes there to seal the CCT?
Thanks in advance.Guy
