I'm not having any luck getting gasket kits as they seem to be out of production. Any websites or other places that stock them? I'm so close to having a full day of reassembly... :geekdance:

For which bike?

For Sprees, click search, type gasket, hit enter, scroll, then click http://www.hondaspree.net/phpBB3/viewto ... it=gaskets

So easy even a noob can do it.

Then I don't know.

By the way, what part of Phoenix you in? I moved here from Chandler about a year ago, will be back in about a year or so.

Sorry, gotta say, hot enough for you? I miss it... :cry:

I don't see the problem. Ask the Honda dealer to order the d*** things. Look here for numbers.

Zuph - Im up north just south of Anthem/Carefree area and yes, it IS hot enough for me. :P I'm down here from WA across the water from Seattle for school. Only havin the Bike has proven to be interesting. Heat off the motor and heat all around = death at stoplights.

Bear - Yeah ive been trying to order those gasket kits but they keep telling me that theyre not made anymore. :sad:

If they were not made anymore, the part number would not be listed (like a number of things for my 1983 Aero 80) or would be marked NLA.

Maybe there's a forum member who has a set of gaskets for the SB50 and would be willing to scan them. That way you could trace them onto gasket material form Autozone, O'Reilly's, etc. and cut your own.

A few months ago there was a thread concerning the idea of posting gasket scans. If they were posted here I'd be willing to run up some vector files and post them here in case anyone has a Cricut or other electronic cutter.

Which gaskets do you need? The fiber ones would be easier than copper or aluminum.

I have started scanning the gaskets I have and sending them to the Moderators. I believe some of them have even made it to the Wikispreedia pages.

The page is pretty rough, but we have a place to put/find scans. Present are Fishman's scans - AF05 intake gasket, AF16 Nikasil bore kit base and head gasket. Also Clivester's AF05 base gasket up on the wiki. Let's fill that page up :thumbsup:

Greetings:

Users take note that there are differences between the U.S.-market SA50 Elite AF16 engine blocks and some bore kits. Some, like the Polini & Malossi 47mms, and at least one version of the Nikasil 49mm, fit directly on the AF16 cases. Others, like the Char-Mo, Ruima and probably others were designed for the Dio AF18 cases, which feature a considerably larger boost port and hence the gasket cutout.

Here's more. By the way, I don't see any vector images there for those with access to cutters/plotters

I just found out the Base Gasket supplied with the Nikasil bore is not the correct gasket :sad: (I cut my own, but not worthy of a scan and post!)

I will however scan the rest of the gasket s I have :smile:

I bought my wife a Cricut in January. I didnt even think of using it for that. I also found the deep cut blades online. Keep me in the loop on this I do not mind cutting some gaskets for anyone. Of course for a small fee to cover cost, blades, material, and shipping. It's the big one that does 12" X whatever with the software that we use (not cricut software) and it will only be limited to the size of the gasket material. All I need is the svg vector files.
