Free gaskets !

Well, kind of...

I've scanned in a set of new genuine gaskets and put them on my site. The idea is you print them off (at 100% size !

) and use them to cut your own gaskets out of a sheet of gasket paper.

Obviously you can't do that for the head gasket but I've included it anyway as it may help you find a suitable alternative from another model or something.

By the way, I'm not accepting any responsibility if you use these and then your bike blows up...

Brilliant idea

Any chance of doing it for a KR-1s?

I think youve missed the point here.
If you read the post properly, youll see that he's NOT giving away actual gaskets, he's giving you the means of makeing your own gaskets.
Just thought I'd clear that up for you.

Cheers, Scott.

Was reminded of an important lesson today whilst makeing a generator gasket for my Tandem....... "measure twice, cut once"

Unfortunately I made the mistake of printing out the template and then went straight into cutting out the gasket. It wasn't until I finished cutting and went to fit it that I realised it was too big.

After measuring it I found that I had to print it out at 97% to get it to the correct size (don't assume yours will be the same, and be sure to measure it for yourself).

Just thought it wise to post this as a warning to others so they don't make the same dumb mistake I did.

Still, a great big thankyou to Tim for taking the time to scan them and post them up. =D> =D> =D> =D>

Oops, sorry Scott !

I suppose it depends on what software/printer/driver you've got - sometimes mine tries to add a border to your print so you get something smaller than you wanted. So yes, please double-check before you start cutting the gasket paper.
