No ,not at all. High oil consumption could be down to how the bike was run in from new and the type of oil used. But the correct fitting of the seal would have to help to some degree.burty wrote:So it's not a confirmed cure for high oil consumption then is it Kev?

Re: oil seal
Sorry to revive a thread from the dead, but I'll need to do this soon, does the seal pull outwards with the old woodscrew method?

Re: oil seal
Yes the seal (Yamaha part number 93102 - 35459 according to the parts listing pdf in the downloads section) pulls outwards and for those not familier with the self tapping or wood screw `trick` I managed to find this on Youtube, sorry it`s of an old 2 stroke Jawa 350cc twin being worked on but the screw trick can be viewed from 05:08 onwards

Re: oil seal
I'll happily give this a try before I rebuild the top end, is that part number correct Mince? I can't find it in the PDF...
Never mind, found it!
