You can screw a couple of self tapping screws into the seal (very carefully) to help pull the seal out then wrap the shaft in ptfe tape (or similar) to protect the new seal when you drift it in . Loads of videos on You Tube to help you out . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I'm always comparing it to my Hornet which takes off much lower in the rev range so feels much faster. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
