Title: Kickstarter shaft seal 1979-80 250
Post by: Husabergpete on February 02, 2009, 05:39:44 pm

Gents,

Need help with getting a seal for the kickstarter shaft on this 250. The shaft is 17mm and the od of the caseing is 22mm. Seal place had nothing and my parts book only gives a 14mm shaft size same as the gear change.

Thanks Pete.

G'Day
The Seal on a 55 or 54 engine is not a Seal but a O-ring
Part No 0770160030  use the number a a KTM shop????
you also need the bush as well Part No 550 33 0069 000

Or

you can go to a Auto shop and buy 2 o-ring 16 x 3 and fit the 2
o-ring side by side and push the Kickstarter on Hard .
you may need to push the  1st o-ring in with somthing to get it
and the 2nd will keep it in place .

Dennis, 

Thanks very much for the info. Adrian G has been a huge help with the rebuild so far. Motor back together and in the frame. Never worked on such a fiddlie bike. I can see where all the original costs in making these things went. Still plenty to do before Glenbawn Race Day. See you all there.

Pete
