2005 kdx 200 making noise after water pump seal and bearing replacement

Post by Firstinfire16 »

Replaced the both mechanical seals and bearing on the water pump, now it has a high pitched whine sound coming from the pump area as best I can tell. The sound increases with volume and frequency with increase of throttle. Clutch, tranny, and motor seem to be running fine. Any ideas?

Sounds like something is rubbing. I would take it back apart. Recheck your seal & bearing installation.
If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
