Hi again...
I said it before but will do it again.
I have used both OEM and Patterns gaskets and others, ALL works just perfect....
Just because WE DONīT HAVE AN SPABE OBJECTīS TO REPAIR!!!!!
We have only our z:ds, and belive it or not, theye are just an ORDINARY ENGINE....Who there are about 50 manufanturers in the world who are manufakturing topendgaskets!...(NOT for our engines, BUT for engines GENERALLY!)
Our gaskets/bikes are NOT any kind of magic/or "one in the world"!!!!
Our engines are JUST THE SAME as anyone else regarding gaskets...
If anyone of you have got leaks you have done something wrong!!
The gasketmakers in the world have made these for a million engines a year in more than 100 years with no problem!!
WHY should there be a special problem with just our bikes??
Just accept that ANYTHING goes...If it didnīt itīs youīr miss unfortunatly...
In other words...ANYTHING from any gasketmanufacturer are 100% acceptable!!!
Regards
Hallen

: What Dread states is true.
: The best advice to anyone is you are 100%
: safe with the OEM (Original Equipment

: can afford one, which is often more than a
: full pattern kit.

: I have NEVER had a problem with a Genuine K
: Head Gasket......but have NEVER had a
: problem with a pattern one either.
: I always use BLUE HYLOMAR on both sides with

: gasket sealant and is a superb product and
: only Ģ5 per tube.

: Make sure your Block & Cylinder Heads

: I can tell you this a point Pete and I do
: disagree on. I have tried pattern kits to
: find the head gasket don't seal (so has Kip
: one of my mates) however Pete swears by them
: having not experienced any problem.
:
: I know this will only add to your
: confussion, I'm no mechanic but wouldn't use
: a pattern head gasket (would use pattern for
: all others though)Pete is a mechanic and
: uses and recomends pattern.
:
: You pays your money takes your chance the
: pattern kit is excellent value.
