750 Gasket set.

<< < (2/3) > >>

Just a thought Phil, doesn't your K2 have a big bore kit fitted. Was the head gasket a Cometic item?

philward:
Good point Roy, another senior moment! - it has the gasket that came with the Cruzinimage 836 kit. It was the K6 Cafe Racer that I moved on that has the Vesrah head gasket on. I must still have the Vesrah head gaskets hung up in the shed (as also got 836 kit on the CR Rep).
You have a good memory Roy!
Did use a Cometic head gasket on a big bore kit I had on that Freddie Spencer Rep DOHC I used though.

royhall:
I used a Cometic head gasket on my GS1000 as the NE one in the set didn't even fit. The NE gaskets in the 450 Bomber set all required trimming as well. That's really why I am asking the question about the best gasket set. There must be one out there that's perfect out of the box. What does Trigger use?

Roy, Change of subject - I have a Suzuki  valve depressing tool (like a C Spanner shape) for changing the shims for a GS1000 (from when I originally bought a new one in 1978). I also have 6 shims but not sure if they are Z1 or GS. The shims I have measure about 29.5mm.
If you can let me know what size the GS shims are, if the shims/tool are any good to you, let me know and you can have them.
I also have an original Z1 valve depressing tool (and if the shims aren''t GS shims they will be Z1 shims) - if they are any good to anyone, let me know.

Will check this afternoon Phil. I have a valve tool already but spare shims are always handy. Cheers.
