Gasket ?
« on: January 18, 2013, 04:43:08 PM »
Cracked my 750 case, and was surprised that it had no gasket. My question is, should I use something when I put it back together, or not. Any help would be great.

Thank You. Bob

The crankcase halves do not have a gasket, just a thin layer of sealant is used

Use something like Hondabond,   do NOT use silicone, it will soften and fall off inside and can very easily plug certain oil passages in the motor.
