Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This kit is designed for the following Kawasaki models:
- KX60 (1983-2003)
- KX65 (2000-2004)
- KX80 (1983-2000)

Always confirm your motorcycle's specific model year and engine size to ensure correct fitment before purchasing.
Setup: Installation involves removing the rear wheel, sprocket cover, and potentially the exhaust to gain access to the countershaft area. The old seal, bushing, and O-rings should be carefully removed. The new components should be installed using appropriate tools to avoid damage. It is recommended to lubricate the new seal and bushing with a light coat of clean transmission oil or appropriate grease before installation. The sprocket nut washer (if included) should be placed before the sprocket nut.
Care: While the seal kit itself does not require routine maintenance, regular inspection of the countershaft area for any signs of oil leakage is recommended. Ensure the motorcycle's transmission oil level is maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Clean the area around the countershaft periodically to easily spot any potential leaks.
