Gaskets

[Hallsy]

Always worth checking someone like David Silver for prices (can get all prices online if you have the part number) as it is well known that Leisure Trail are far from cheap for some parts.

Not sure how they work out on the gaskets, but I priced a full gasket set and little end bearing & piston pin clip at just over £100 from DS.

I found someone selling an Athena set for around £45 but not sure that they still supply them. There is a link in the FAQ's I believe.

Thanks Hallsy, I just found a full set of Athena gaskets on Ebay for £40. But also looked on Athena website and seems you can order them directly from Italy for around £45 inc postage to UK. Must be cheaper then Honda

Fishy has used Athena with no problems whatsoever.

Its just everything else that falls off of his bike is the problem.

Thanks helisupp for heads up, because I googled and there are horror stories like this:

Fortunately the CRM is a 2 stroke and no need for an oil hole in the gasket

I used Athena Gaskets on my rebuild, I haven't had any problems with them. If I was rebuilding again, I might be tempted to use a genuine head gasket. I think some manufacture use Athena to make there genuine gaskets.

Here is the link. If I remember correctly the postage is fairly expensive from Italy. So it maybe worth asking on here first if anybody else wants one, to share the postage.
