Engine Oil seal sets
« on: October 23, 2020, 10:33:33 AM »
Has anyone used a set like this?

I know the original Honda seals are always best but DSS only have a couple of the genuine seals in stock.

Not used them yet but have just bought the set. It is missing one of the seals for a cb500/550 which needs to be bought separately

Have you phoned DSS it see if they have any 550 kits in ?

Only difference 500 to 550 is that big blanking plug which is a pushrod seal on the 500 and the blank can normaly be reused unless somebody has previously fitted an O ring chain.
And yes have used pattern seals kits

Yeah I spoke to them. they were surprised themselves to see that they don't do kits for the 550.

Which seal is missing from the kit?

Nothing missing for a 550, if you buy the 500 kit from DS it will be missing the big blanking plug

Thanks for the responses everyone. I've ordered the kit and will order a clutch lever seal separately.
