  • How I changed the outer water pump seal on my 2006 Yamaha YZ450F. The process is the same for most bikes. Simple to do with common hand tools! I also upgraded my radiator hoses to silicone!
    What I used:
    M12 e-ratchet
    amzn.to/3AfwNfu
    Water pump rebuild kit
    amzn.to/4fqw0bH
    Tusk silicone hose kit
    amzn.to/3Yu2R9d
    Water wetter
    amzn.to/3SBzSMV
    Coolant
    amzn.to/3LOTfhY
    Ninja coffeemaker

    Thank you for the useful advices.
    I have a 2005 WR450F, i had the water pump completely changed beacuse of some leaking coolant from the weep hole, once i had it changed it stopped leaking.
    Yesterday i started the bike, and suddenly i pulled the gas throttle to the limiter like for 2 times... what a stupid idea: the bike was leaking again from that little hole.
    Now i'm buying the esternal seal and i'm trying to fix it, i hope so 🥴.
    We'll see!
    Saluti dall'Italia 🤙🇮🇹
