[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 123391, member: 60"] I have now inserted the two X two O rings I did find that 'a smear' of silicone sealant is a difficult thing to achieve, and I wonder if my rare excursion into metric (ie useing 19mm ID instead of an imperial size) was a mistake as one of the packer o rings seemed loose on the tube, however they are all set in place now I used a torch and a screwdriver to check that quarter of the seal against the barrel is OK and all seems fine I shall now wait and check nothing has popped up before continuing the assembly. Trouble is its a long way up and a long way back if it doesn't work, but I have found a wooden box and a large clamp to hold the UFM & Forks alongside on the primary side without disturbing the wiring or cables so just the oil lines need reconnecting but I guess it will be next week before testing can take place [/QUOTE]
