Gasket set recommendation??
« on: January 16, 2014, 12:14:41 PM »
Can anyone recommend me a decent gasket set / supplier for the CB750?

I'm rebuilding my engine into new cases, and want to try and get a set which is complete, do any include the bottom end seals for the crank, clutch, output shaft etc?

Cheers.

Pete.

R1 Pete,
In my view there is none but the best.I have in the past messed with pattern stuff and have not thought much of them.Down to you because of cost etc but if thats not the case stick with original.The next of best and its not much help as I can not remember the name but they came in yellow packaging japenese sounding sure Bryan will know.
Cheers

+1 on 'Noboru Packing' (in the yellow packaging).  Didn't like the looks of the Athena brand but never actually used one of those.
