gaskets

I have a low mile '78 that runs pretty good. The gaskets are original and a little leaky. I want to go through and replace with a kit. What would be the best resource for me to look at for this? Thanks

Hello, my name is Cameron. Ive been into the motorcycle scene for a while and was recently gifted one complete 75 xs650 engine and the majority of another one. My final goal for my first bike build is a xs650 chopper but due to financial issues i cannot obtain the parts that i need fast enough...

so far from my own research i have found some engines specs and 2 different posted compression ratios for the 1981 xs650. i would like to know all of the technical specs if possible. i have searched this forum and others and have come up inconclusive for data. These are what i have found: 75mm...

After researching for more than an hour I have given up. Do I use sealer on my versah gaskets for the top end or not? Which sealer? and where do I apply it? This is my first rebuild and I have no experience with any of the sealers. There seems to be a bunch of different opinions on this topic so...

Hey All - I'm doing a top end job and I have been cleaning up the remnants of the old gaskets with some WD40 to soften them up and then a gentle scraping with a blade. I don't want any leaks when I put the engine back together, but I also don't want to scrape too much and end up ruining the...

I need replacement 38 mm ID muffler joint gaskets that fit into my original threaded muffler joint nuts or "collars". Though I have a 1976, the 40 mm ID ones from Mikesxs will just not fit inside the "collars". My mufflers (I understand that the PO installed these at some point) have...

Hi all, About to try to get this puppy up and running and I just checked the valve clearances (1979 2F), I noticed that the only oil seal on those valve covers are the o-ring on the inside of the covers. Should I have a gasket between the cover and the engine? They didn't come with my top...

I'm on the verge of rebuilding my 80xs. It has 8k miles that I know of. It runs rough, has probably had gas(from the faulty petcock) seep into the engine. Not to mention on the engine, which I think has thinned the oil on the chain making it seem like I have an oil leak. Anyway, I am really...

So I have some leaking out of the front master cylinder resevoir and I see that it is coming from the cap. I have nice SS lines and I bled the brakes and all (This is on a 77 by the way) and I do not see that I can order JUST the rubber gasket for the cap. I can order it for the 78-94s, but not...
