Since I am going to open the engine, someone could tell me what other parts I should buy, at the time I will look at the crankshaft bearings and connecting rods, the pistons and rings are easy to get, no problem

Gasket kit
Seal Kit
Primary and cam chains
Primary damper rubbers

It is unusual to find shells worn but they can be damaged by dirty oil

Thanks, but and should the primary transmission bearings be changed? I have already seen the seals, do you recommend some sealant to join the parts

Thanks guys

[Bryanj]

Not unless worn or noisy
Hondabond used VERY sparingly between crankcase halves nothing on any paper gasket

Permatex ultra grey

Hello again, I have already bought shock absorbers for the primary transmission, the chain is waiting for me at the post office, the sealant is on the way, but now I have to buy the plasti gauge to measure the gap, but I don't know what measure to buy, In ebay eu there are several for sale, but I don't know which one to choose, could someone help me with the choice, thanks

On my 400f I used the Red plastiguage 0.025mm - 0.175mm but also bought Grey/White 0.018mm - 0.045mm.

I have 3 options, which of these do I buy?
