[QUOTE="Canadian FJR, post: 821916, member: 1223"] "Speculation would be that some road grit somehow got up under the lip of that seal and wore the groove? How does the lip of that seal look? Any foreign stuff melted into it? Perhaps attempts to clean the seal from the outside would have helped in forcing the grit up under the seal edge?" That was my thought also Fred but there is no sign of any foreign material. Theseal looked good. If there was a rock or some other particle I would assume that the cut would be slightly more irregular.....this cut is perfect. As I said before, I likely would have buttoned things back up because it looks like it should be there. No shame on the bike with the number of miles, I'm just a little surpried that it has not been mentioned in earlier posts. Canadian FJR [/QUOTE]
