Valve Seals
20 Oct 2018 16:31
Hello fellas I have ordered a top end gasket kit from Z1 enterprises,I have received that today and it came with a kit from a brand Vesrah which I could have bought cheaper on eBay as well as another brand name Athena, the reason I was avoiding those brand its because I don't know if are good or not specially on steam seals, I remember back in the day that if the seals where not OEM it was not good, has anybody used this brand of seals are any goos at all or should I return it?
I grew up riding and fixing all sort of small bike until I inherited A 1977 GS 750 when I was 16, that changed my life completely I love metric bike and I own a few fully working and have some projects.

Whatever the brand, I would want to assure that the valve stem seals are made of Viton.

Vesrah quality is mediocre. Better than Athena but not up to OEM Kawasaki level.
