Hi guys. Finally getting the rebuilt pump from Impros tomorrow. I was wondering if i need to use some sort of sealer on the bolts when i put the ride plate back on? I also saw the the ride plate had silicone sealer around the edges when i took it off. Do i need to seal that as it was sealed before i too it off? Thaks.

I'd put silicone around the edges for sure.2013 Kawasaki ultra 300x

I used to seal the Ultra-150 plate I had with silicone - yet never used that stuff on my Ultra-300x and everything's fine.
BTW Kawasaki does not use silicone on their Ultra-300x ride plates OEM.
Good Luck !!!---------------------------------------
