Hi, I am hoping that this is the right place to post this request for help.
I've had my GTR1000 for 20 years and love it to bits. BUT, I found, a while back, that I was getting air seepage from the seals on the balance pipe. Hence I was having to pump up the front suspension every day and it only lasted for a short while. Apparently they have hardened and now no longer seal correctly.
I have tried to get new seals for the balance pipe but the dealers in South Wales (I am in Aberdare) tell me that this part (the seal) is now discontinued. I have tried to make my own seals but failed and I tried to fit a generic seal that was as close as I could ascertain from the original seals dimensions. Failed again. I have also tried other methods of sealing the holes and so remove the balance pipe altogether but this has also proven to be a waste of time.
My question is:- Any ideas where I can get the right seals for this? Has anyone else had this issue?
Thanks,
Bill
