    1100/1168 Head Gasket

    The head gasket that came with the weisco 1168 kit is leaking
    will the OEM head gasket work or do I it need it to be over sized.

                I hate taking off the cyl head again it only has 400 mi on it. the leak was-en,t bad at first and even seemed like it got better with the re torque but last time i rode it it was starting to make a mess.
