gets the job done.
Nathan in AZ
Comments On May 11, 2013:Saves your seals from getting torn on install and saves you time of looking around your garage for an old sandwich bag... Perfect fit on my kx450f and a little snug on my yz's but still gets the job done on all forks that i've had to do.

Fits too Tight
AARON in MI
Comments On Mar 20, 2013:At least for 43mm KYB's, the fit is too tight. You can get it on, but it's too tight to get it off without messing it up. I ended up using a plastic bag for the 2nd fork.
It's worth noting the fit of the 48mm bullet was fine (on Showas). But for me the 43mm version was not a workable product.

Invaluble Tool..Great Price.
Michael in MO – Machine this part was bought for: 2005 KAWASAKI KX250
Comments On Mar 09, 2013:If you rebuild your own forks (and you should) this is a must have and the Tusk version is quality at a very affordable price, I highly recommend!

dont cheap out
MATT in NJ – Machine this part was bought for: 2006 KTM 300 XC-W
Comments On Feb 19, 2013:I wasnt to keen on spending $5 on a flimsy piece of plastic but do you really want to have a fork seal fail because you didnt buy it? I do all my own work and time is sometimes more precious than money. Works great and protects the seals during install.

Comments On Jan 25, 2013:This is must have if you replace your own seals. Get rid of the zip lock baggie over the fork and get one of these.

Works good if you don't hit it.
Josh in WA
Comments On Apr 06, 2012:Great tool. Does exactly what it's supposed to do by saving the seals from instal damage. I took it easy on the first fork, but got in a hurry and hit it a little too hard getting it over the top of the fork and split it down the side. Totally my fault, but it still worked just fine. On a separate note, I've used plastic wrap before, and it worked just fine. Some guys use electrical tape, but for the price, this is a lot cooler, and it's re-usable.

Great concept, poor materials.
Andrew in CO
Comments On Mar 22, 2012:Ordered the 48mm bullet to ease rebuild of KYB forks for my two '07 YZ250F's. Should have read reviews first! Had same issue that at least 3 other folks had. Combination of brittle materials and too tight a fit. Lubed before installing, then impossible to remove without shattering the bullet. Had to complete the job with the baggy over the tube trick. Looking for other brand since like the concept.

Order 1mm bigger
MATTHEW in CA
Comments On Mar 15, 2012:After reading the reviews that people had to cut theirs off, I ordered a 1mm bigger bullet. Worked awesome! Super easy to get on the seal, and even easier to pull it back off the fork. Definitely worth the price.

Definatly needed
MATT in NSW
Comments On Feb 05, 2012:When doing your seals you need one of these so you dont damage the inner part of the seal on installation. If you damage the seal then you may aswell take it off and get another one because it will almost leak instantly.

Works but...
KYLE in UT
Comments On Feb 04, 2012:The 43mm one I had seems to tight. It goes over the fork slider and the seals install over perfect. But would not come back off the fork slider, I even lubed it before using it. I had to cut it off therefore destroying the bullet.

must have
RICHARD in AZ
Comments On Jan 12, 2012:This little product is a must have, when replacing your fork seals. However, it needs to be just alittle bigger to slide over the fork tube easier. Its a pain to put it on every timer. This just makes it easier.

Glad I bought it
John in IL
Comments On Nov 03, 2011:I bought the 48mm version. It is a little tough to get it over the tube...lube it up and use a finger on the inside of the bullet to help it over the end of the tube. It makes installing the seal a breeze and it seems very difficult to damage a seal using the seal bullet.

Feel cheap, but work well
Justin in NV
Comments On Jul 25, 2011:I thought these would feel more durable. They held up fine. I used both the 46mm and 48mm. Both fit very snug. I thought I was going to have to cut it off one of my 48mm forks. No leaky seals so I'm very happy with the purchase.

Not what i expected....
jorge in CA
Comments On Jun 16, 2011:Tight fit. Needed to allmost rip it so it would fit (48mm 07wr250f). Needed to pry it off, and the surface felt rough for a seal even with fork seal lube.. Going back to the zip lock bag...Like with any Motion Pro tool, its a hit or miss...

Didn't fit over the fork tube
NORA in CO
Comments On Jun 05, 2011:The bullet would not fit over the fork tube, it was just a tad too small. Seemed like a good idea if the bullet would fit over my WR250 fork tube, but I wound up using my old reliable way--teflon tape.
TECH NOTE: THE SEAL BULLET HAS A TIGHT FIT

Comments On Feb 07, 2011:I wasn't a believer at first and thought that I could just wrap the fork tube with tape, let me tell you that is a pain in the neck to do. Dont waste you're time, BUY THIS PRODUCT, if you do forks yourself.

Good Product!
David in AZ
Comments On Aug 03, 2008:Definitely helps install new seals without damaging. Seals are a lot more expensive than the bullet! Just make sure you buy correct size for your forks. Gave it a four only because I've never used other than Motion Pro bullet, so I don't know if there's better. Very happy with product.

Easy to Use
BRIAN in TX
Comments On Jun 10, 2008:Made the job go much quicker. Just make sure you don't push the down on the tube too far, they will get stuck. I used a warm-wet rag to soften it up and slide it off when it got stuck.
