I just installed a rebuilt crank assembly (rebuild by Bill Bune) into the cases of a '69 AT1 I am restoring. I used a set of VINTCO crank bearings (I believe they have a good rep?), heating the cases and freezing the bearings so they dropped in, and then installing the crank using both heat and a puller by DEET (less traumatic for everything).
Since the VINTCO bearings came with both crank seals I thought I would go with them, but after I installed the left one I am reconsidering. 

The crank turned really easily on install. No binding at all. But installing the left seal puts a real drag on it ( ). The VINTCO seal is a true double lip/double spring seal. Meaning that I can see a retaining spring around both seal lips. The OEM Yamaha seal (I do have one) is not like this. OEM seal has a double lip, but if there is a spring I cannot see it.

The amount of drag the VINTCO seal puts on the crank is really surprising. The set indicates it fits multiple bikes, including real race bikes, so I'm wondering if the seal set would be more for one of them? I do have a new OEM seal I can install. It would be a shame to destroy the VINTCO one.

If anyone has used them before and have any feedback, I would appreciate it.

Cheers!
