    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. 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...

Just as the title says. Im looking for the main crankcase gasket that goes between the upper and lower crankcase halves.

I checked bikebandit and they dont carry it anymore.

Thanks for any input.
 
Mine fit together with no gasket - just threebond (Suzuki bond, yamabond, it's all the same stuff). I thought all the GSes were like that, but I've been wrong before. Maybe it's a shafty thing. Does your service manual call for a gasket?

yes i do. I had to rip it all apart to repair a transmission part. Found there to be a paper gasket all th way around. Similar to all the other nasty stock gaskets on the rest of the motor.
 
I don't believe the 1000G takes a gasket between the crankcases. 3 bond is what is used.
 
Yup, side covers have gaskets but not the crankcase halves. Threebond sealer - 1194, is the stuff.
 
You can get that centre gasket from a shop in florida but you have to ride your unicorn in there or they wont serve you.
