2009 EC300R 48mm Sachs Fork Seals
 
Hi There, Is it true that you can fit 2010 honda crf450 fork oil and dust seals to 48mm sachs fork, I have a 2009 ec 300r (racing model) and how much fork oil does every body run. Thanks

I can't answer the first question because I have not had to replace seals since I replaced them with synergyseals (thank god those ss are a real b!tch to fit) in terms of oil I think I am 120mm, but suggest you check the susp settings thread

Affirmative. The 09 CRF450R onwards (that run the 48mm KYBs - not the showas) will fit the Sachs perfectly. All the seals and bushings will cross over. Back when I last ordered I found the whole kit for $50. Prices have gone up since the Tsnami but if you shop around you might find a bargain.

As for air gap (springs out, fork collapsed) I think specs are between 90-135mm. If you're happy with it as it is now I'd suggest measuring before you drain them out and you'll have a setting to get you back in the ballpark.

Thanks, I'll try the Honda seals and experiment with oil height and once soughted will post my settings on the database

We have the Flex-Seals" and new wipers in stock. They perform perfect....no air build up....cleaner oil......can be removed and reinstalled many times over. Our seals will last years......proven for ten years now.
