KTM mini Adv Question for KTMRAT

[Mick DMember]

Dave, to replace the kick starter seal on Taylah’s Mini Adv. Do I have to remove the whole right hand case or do you only have to remove the kick starter and flick the old seal out?

[DavidMember]

Sorry Mick it needs to come off, There is an oring in there that I replace with one a little larger and Bobs your uncle, give me a yell, any excuse will do for shed time with baby Katie

I have the genuine seal to fit. If I have any grief I will give you a call.
BTW. I tipped the mini completely upside down last night and another half a liter of fuel ran out of the spark plug hole!! Talk about flooded!!! The exhaust was full of fuel and so was the transfer port!!
I will give it a carbyectamy this arvo.

Interesting reading now I own the bike in question, Mick did you replace the seal as its still leaks, if so whats the O ring you speak of Dave??

TB

[DavidMember]

The O-ring is a slightly smaller one than normal in diameter but a little thicker and stretches in quite well, I will get the exact size to you tomorrow

[Mick DMember]

No I didn’t end up doing it. The seal is still in a little plastic bag hanging in the shed.:blush:
