Hi all
Just wondered if anyone had any experience with the 2 Gear Shift Spindle Oil Seals listed in the parts manual; Part Nos:
- 91202-444-015;
- 91202-444-023 the Alloy Oil Seal
and if one is much better than the other.

My sons NSR250 MC18 fitted with a MC28 R3S Engine had a little, but annoying Oil leak from the Gear Shift Spindle Oil Seal. I replaced said Oil Seal (taking great care with cling film wrapped around Spindle and plenty of Grease applied and driven home with long Socket), but the leak is still there and if anything appears worse.

The only thing I can think of is that there maybe too much play in the Gearbox Housing where the Spindle passes thru causing damage to the Oil Seal, however, this doesn't appear to be any worse than my own NSR250 MC18; or a faulty Oil Seal which I would think highly unlikely as it looked and fitted perfectly (!!or possibly not too perfectly!!) and was a genuine Honda Oil Seal.

Any advice or experience would be gratefully received.

Many thanks
Phil
PS: I must admit this is a first for me, as I have never had any problems replacing Oil Seals before.
