Where do these O-rings Go?

08-05-2016, 08:34 PM

I'm in the process of reassembling my top end. In the gasket set in the same little bag as the cylinder base o-rings and the valve seals are eight skinny little o-rings about 15mm in diameter.

Does anyone know where they are supposed to go? I'm stumped.

Looking at the parts fiche (part #13) I think those are the o-rings that go under the valve guides. So unless you're replacing the guides, you won't need them.

I think I have a loose screw behind the handlebars.
