Description: This is an exact reproduction of the original factory part (214-14453-01) produced by Yamaha. This part fits the following models: all DT-1 models from 1968 - 1971 .The rubber compounds used far exceed the original in both durability and performance. The parts we produce have all been obsolete for many years and are generally unavailable. When you can find them, they are already many years old. MUST READI hope this in informative to all you "ENDURO JUNKIES".Some question has arisen about the quality of some of the products that are being sold today and I just wanted to clear the air for all of you.Products are being sold that quote themselves as being "superior" to the originals, but this is certainly not the case. So, here it goes.......As to the comparison between our Buna-N and the cast urethane that is being used in other products, here are the scientific numbers so to speak. With painstaking care, all of our products are digitally copied and re-created from surviving museum quality samples. We NEVER copy anyone's reproductions. We target the OEM elastomers used in the original manufacturing process, yet incorporate today's space aged upgrades using a high grade Acrylonitrile-Butadiene polymer, compounded to meed and exceed the strict Military Performance Criteria (AMS/Mil-R-6885 Class 1 Grade 70) with added UV and ozone protection and anti-flex inhibitors, which add inherent resistance to oil, gasoline, gasoline additives, and steam along with many more commercial cleaners you would use to clean your CLASSIC machine after the days fun is over. Urethane based products have poor to very poor ratings when exposed to these elements. Our professionally designed, pressure-heat vulcanized process insures complete polymer crosslink and superior high and low temperature service. This coupled with specially compounded polymer vibration dampening and abrasion resistance, will provide longer service under harsh conditions, assuring you that breakage in the field will be a thing of the past. PLEASE, be aware of the CHEAP substitutions and BACKYARD mold processes that are sure to develop failures from things as simple as high vibration and cleaning after a hard days ride. I didn't make this stuff up. Look for yourselves in any polymer textbook.We at KDI are committed to QUALITY and are looking forward to making parts for your motorcycle.Sincerely,KDI Reproductions
