OEM Float Bowl Gaskets
« on: June 04, 2021, 12:09:30 PM »
Anyone know where I can get original float bowl gaskets for my 750 K1 or know the part number as I cant find it in the Parts List?

DS do them in a gasket set kit at £25 per carb or repros at a few quid each, but I'm always wary of repro stuff or are these ok in use?

Thanks,
Andrew

Andrew. The DSS repro carb bowl gaskets seem to be fibre-reinforced and don’t swell with ethanol fuel in my experience.:

Alternatively, the DSS pattern carb kits (£9.95+vat) are keyster and are of a good OEM quality. Again these come with fibre reinforced bowl gaskets. :

I’d recommend both options.
