Vesrah head gaskets.
« on: June 04, 2022, 09:55:46 AM »
Has anybody got a supplier for 750K5 Vesrah head gaskets. I have an Athena gasket set that mainly looks okay but the head gasket appears to be slightly ropey (it has rust patches on two fire rings that wont clean up). I would prefer to use a Vesrah as that's what has worked for me a few times before. Any other suggestions would be good, as having to replace it again later due to the usual weeps would be an engine out again disaster. I would like to use Cometic but they don't do a standard size gasket, and what about the CycleX's own gasket.

I have managed to buy a Cometic head gasket from Nick at Suzuki Performance Spares so am sorted now. This was about 2 minutes before I read a message from Trigger who has some Vesrah Gaskets spare. I am hell bent on doing this bike the most expensive way possible.  ;D
