  • Valve stem seals - where?

    I lost my valve stem seals after moving them to a "safe location" after deciding they were going to get lost. Well, now I can't find them anywhere.

    When I bought them, they were on e-bay for a smokin' deal.

    Does anyone have a recommended parts source for these?

    I need another good deal. I'm starting to gather parts for the top-end big bore job. I also found a place that bores cylinders for only $35 bucks. Not bad, considering the locals here bored my 2-stroke cylinder for $68 bucks. If I can ship the cylinders, have them bored, I may still save over local....

    OK, valve stem seals.. there are the o-ring thingies on the bottom and valve seals on the top that just click on.
    The o-rings... I got em from my yamaha dealer, valve seals too.
    Bout the boring... get someone who does it right, not one who does it cheap.

          Benneli6@aol.com $33. I just put one in my bike. No master link tho...endless chain. You'll need to split the cases, and take the rods off the crank.

              Yup - I noticed the partsnmore chain. I'm a novice. Someone said XS1100 stands for "1100 parts inside the cases!" I'm not about to get into that....
