CB500/550 / Re: top end gasket set recomendations
« on: Today at 08:30:06 AM »
It depends which gasket set you use as to the size O rings you will need. All the kits have different depth head gaskets.

Thank you nurse Julie
any adea on the difference I should be looking for from gasket thicknes to `O ring`? or how would you work out what size would be best to use?
thank you again

I have a local source for most O rings

A company called Hayley Group

On a local industrial estate, the Hereford branch are really helpful,

Imperial, metric,fuel resistant etc,

And the bonus, normally a fraction of the cost of NOS,




Take a sample, and the item, like tappet cap ,they will find the size needed

Thanks Odd job, will do some looking around, but doubt I will see an original anywhere soon :-) .. DSS do a replica 4 into 4, but not sure if its the best option as there are a couple of others out there, could all be from the same source?
