Hi, basically i might be buying a 1992 NSR 125 as a project bike. He says that it needs a new drive shaft seal, does this mean a new crank seal Confused . Does anyone know if this part is widely available?

Also what price should i be paying at most for it, his description is this:


1992 J reg HONDA NSR 20,000 miles ok it would b a good project, the speedo clocks work and has new chain and sprockets,and new tyres. il get photos on her asap. need a new drive shaft seal,

Any help would be appreciated, thanks John.

Just called him up, he says the seal thing is where the front sprocket attaches to the cog, its leaking, basically he said even with a new seal it leaks, and it needs a weld doing around there. Also it has no MOT and Tax, no front mudguard and punctured rear tyre. He also says he only wants 100 ONO, which to me sounds like a bargain even if its just for spares!! What you lot think?

Worth it for £100 definitely. Strip and resell on the bits for profit, or fix it up and clean it up and sell it for profit.

Leaky output shaft even with new seal is a worry... bent output shaft or split casing sound like the culprit...

Offer him £75...

Ok, so could you weld the casing if it is split?
