Just wondering if the O ring for a indian G.P. 200 lay shaft can be sourced from any where else besides a scooter dealers i.e. B&Q and what size are they if they can be. I need one asap and if I could get one local it would be a big help rather than having to order one and wait. :shock:

You should get one at most bearing and seal suppliers or hydraulic repair shops.

As Gaz says any car repair garage will have a box of assorted o rings. I'm sure a friendly mechanic will sort you out a couple. Best have a spare in case it catches as you assemble the lay shaft into the bearing. I always put a smear of grease and twist the shaft as it goes in.
