Title: right exhaust gasket?
Post by strang on 05/27/13 at 13:38:21

I took my header pipe off today to weld my Dyna to the pipe.
Was going to pop in a new exhaust gasket but the one I have seemed quite a bit too small.
The one I have is 55mm in diameter and this is the exact one I bought:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Exhaust-Gasket-Suzuki-LS650-1987-00-Copper-New-/130688826017?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item1e6da93aa1

The old one seemed quite a bit bigger, maybe 60mm.
Is this just a 55mm washer that has compressed over time or do I have the wrong one?
I put the old one back in for today, but will be doing verslavy soon so wanna pop a new one in. Your help much appreciated.
Mike

It doesn't look like the one I ordered for mine. This is what I got (from my dealer though) :

You cannot trust ebay vendors to supply the correct parts. Thats why I always order fron on line dealers. :)

thanks people - I wasn't going mental.
Ebay has saved me some money but it has also cost me a lot of hassle over the years. ::)
I'll order the right part now I have that part number.
