As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Is This Really An OEM Gasket Set? HELP!

It appears to be a genuine "Suzuki" gasket set according to the description of the item. It looks to have the right style of oil breather cover gasket that's above the valve cover. Has anybody bought this kit or know if its any good?
Thanks in advance

It says "OEM replacement" plus it's too cheap to be genuine! Might work, but.....Do you feel lucky?
 
It's a reasonably good quality aftermarket set. I've used them with no real problems. The aftermarket sets for twins give way less problems than those for the fours in my experience.The only major is that there were at least two and possibly more shapes of cam cover for the GSX400 - and inevitably the one in the kit will be wrong for your motor...
 
Just out of sheer bloody-mindedness, I'd avoid that seller for being a weasel.
 
Alright so I went down to a local Suzuki dealership (, turns out here in Canada we refer to the 1982 Gsx400L as a 400EZ, "z" meaning the year 82, anyways, they had my valve cover gasket and chain tensioner gasket in stock, they've gone ahead and ordered me a oil breather gasket as well, should be here shortly, only cost me roughly $60.
