Replacing Crank Seals

[cr2504life]

Hi, I have a 97 cr250 and i want to replace the crank seals. Is it possible to replace them without splitting the cases? Thanks

There is no need to split the cases to get to the seals. You need to remove the flywheel on the left side. And the right side cover to get the primary gear off to expose that seal. I have found that screwing a small sheet metal screw into the seal and pulling it out with pliers works well. Also a manual for the bike would be of great help.
