This is a discontinued part, I ruined the seal removing it. It's for the decompression lever on an 86 ATC200X.

ID 8MM
OD 15MM
W 6MM - I can change the width (thinner or thicker), no time to change the OD at this point. Later I could bore it out a MM or 2MM if that did the trick.

If ANYONE knows of an oil seal from any model for any application that has this ID and OD and a width I can deal with, please let me know.....

did you look up a 350x seal?

that 185 i rebuilt had a decompression valve cover on it....maybe like a 83 200

theres a dude on ebay that sells complete oil seal kits for 350x and other old motors......he might have a newer 200x kit

of course if you dont use the de-comp what iv done in the past is just make an aluminum plug and yamabond it in there....no seal needed

350x is not the same, I always pluged mine on the 250X when we raced them. Made up an Alum. plug just a little bigger , froze it and placed in the head, when warmed to room temp it expanded and was a nice snug fit. OR you could use a large carrage bolt and a nut, make sure you put locktite on the nut and I "stake" the threads so it can not back off.

Do you have a bearing place around? If you need I can try and find the phone # of the bearing place I have been to in Buffalo NY, thye matched up several Honda seals for me a few years ago.

It's Buffalo Bearing that I was thinking of. I wasn't sure of the name so I was going to call my brother tomorrow but seeing the building on their web page I know that was the one.
