o-ring ....suzuki dealership does not have...help~!

[Poot]

hi all,


I went to the suzuki dealership to get some new o-rings today. They did not have one I was looking for. It is on the screw attached to the cam-chain tensioner on my 850.

they did not have this o-ring on the microfiche, so im stuck!

does anyone know a part number, or what type of o-ring to get? the size shouldn't be too hard to figure out, but exactly what type of oring is where the problem lies.

the one I have on now, is rock-hard, so I want to replace it.


any help/tips would be appreciated.

Go to a local bearing supply house or seal supplier with the old O-ring. Viton is the common material and it should be fine for your purposes.

As I recall, the part number is not on the schematic for some of the bikes. You need to check out the schematic for the 750 to find the o-ring part number. At least that is what I remeber doing a year ago when I rebuilt mine.

Its not listed for the GS750 model, I just checked my factory parts manual and direct with the dealers microfiche this morning.

Im looking for the same for my GS750 (leaking tensioner Oring)

Anyone know dimensions??>??

When mine (GSX1100SZ Katana) was leaking, I just went and got an O-ring from a bag of assorted sizes, popped it in, and all has been fine. Just look for a snug fit.

The part number you seek is here, along with pictures and details for replacing all both o-rings and the seal on your cam chain tensioner:

The last part number provided above is incorrect (the part is an oil seal, and that's the o-ring prefix). It should be: 09284-10006

The part you specifcally asked about is the lock screw o-ring, and that's part number 09280-06005.

If you have one, try Ace Hardware. They helped me out several times for different applications. I also got o-rings from my local Auto Parts store.

ordered the gasket and oring today....


i'll have to go to a bearing /industrial supply place to get the o-ring on the inside of the tensioner.



i never knew there was even supposed to be a gasket on the tensioner!! mine wasnt even there!

I got my O rings but no luck on the seal or the gasket, they have to be ordered! a 1 week wait! so much for overnight postage!
