: 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!!!

: What Dread states is true.
: The best advice to anyone is you are 100%
: safe with the OEM (Original Equipment
: Manufacturers) head gasket.........if you
: 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
: mine, which was invented by Rolls Royce as a
: gasket sealant and is a superb product and
: only Ģ5 per tube.
:
: I have just used a PATTERN GASKET on my
: current Z1300 with no problems.
:
: Make sure your Block & Cylinder Heads
: surfaces are 100% clean and gasket free
: before rebuilding, as no matter which gasket
: you use, if the surfaces are not 100%, it
: will leak no matter which gasket you use.
: Its all about preparation.

: 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.
