    Valve cover gasket source recommendation

    Hi folks, the valve cover gasket needs replacement (it's over 10 years old and is seeping at a few spots) and I picked up one from eBay (https://www.ebay.com/itm/175557538620). However the one from eBay is much thinner than the one I have on the bike and I'm worried that the thinner gasket will do damage to something (like the tacho cable gear) when I torque down the fasteners. Is this a possible problem? Do folks have experience with this vendor?

    Man, that sucks! Freaking Suzuki is abandoning us! Critical parts like gaskets are being discontinued! NOOOOO!

    Your concern about the tach gear is a good one. Is it a problem in the real world? I don't know. I'd be keeping a net out for an OEM gasket, though. Sadly, the same problem exists for my Kawasaki. Bummer.

      I think my Cometic one came from Schnitz Racing?
