MOTO1988 Fork Seal and Bushing Kit for Yamaha V-Star MT-07 XSR700 — 41x53/41x58 Oil & Dust Seals, Full Rebuild Set

MOTO1988 fork bushing, oil seal and dust seal kit lets you rebuild Yamaha front forks precisely, restoring smooth travel and preventing oil leaks. Replacing worn fork seals and bushings stops oil seepage and restores consistent suspension performance. This comprehensive kit bundles the common wear items—oil seals, dust seals, bushings, clips, O-rings and gaskets—so you can service both forks in one job without chasing individual parts or incompatible aftermarket pieces.

Which Yamaha motorcycles will this kit fit?

This kit is designed to match the fork dimensions and OEM numbers used across many V-Star and modern naked/sport models. Confirm fit by comparing your bike’s model year and the OEM/part numbers listed below.

• V-Star family: XVS650 (1998–2016 variants), XVS950 (2009–2017), XVS1100 (1999–2009), XVS1300 (2007–2017).
• Sport/naked: MT-07 (2018–2022), FZ-07 (2015–2017), XSR700 (2018–2023).
• Manufacturer part for reference: 4EB-23145-01-00; replaces 4EB-23144-00-00, 5BN-23171-00-00, 4FM-23125-40-00.

What parts are included and why each matters?

The kit supplies both sealing and support parts you’ll need for a proper fork service. Each component plays a role in sealing oil, centering the fork tube, or securing the assembly during reassembly.

• 2 x 41x53x8/10.5 oil seals — keep fork oil contained and maintain damping performance.
• 2 x 41x58x8/11 dust seals — block dirt and moisture at the stanchion lip to prevent seal damage.
• 4 x bushings — provide low-friction guidance for the inner tube to reduce wear.
• 4 x O-rings, 2 x gaskets, 4 x oil seal clips — ensure proper sealing and secure fitment during assembly.

How do I verify compatibility before buying?

Measure your fork seal dimensions and check OEM numbers to avoid returns. Use the listed part numbers and model years as a cross-reference; when in doubt match the 41mm seal sizing or consult a dealer/mechanic.

• Compare the seal dimensions stamped on your current seals to 41x53 and 41x58 values in this kit.
• Cross-check OEM references: 4EB-23145-01-00 and its replacement numbers provided above.
• Confirm the motorcycle model and year (examples: 1998–2016 XVS650, 2018–2022 MT07) before purchase.

Can I install this kit myself or should I use a shop?

Basic mechanical experience, correct tools and a fork service manual let a competent DIYer perform this job. If you lack tools (fork spring compressor, torque wrench, seal driver) or experience, professional installation avoids damage and ensures correct damping reassembly.

• DIY requires fork disassembly, inspection, cleaning, and torqueed reassembly following a manual.
• Professional shops provide press-fit installation, correct oil fill and safety checks.
• MOTO1988 offers customer support if you have product-fit or installation questions.
