Favorite (Early) 750 Head Gasket?
« on: February 20, 2023, 06:43:42 PM »
Pretty short and sweet.  I'm looking for everyone's preferences when it comes to early (1971) head gaskets for the CB750, specifically the ones with the small holes around the oil returns.  I normally go OEM, but as I understand it the part number has been superceded to only be the later version that's used when Honda introduced the 8 sleeves and seals.

Anybody have a favorite aftermarket?  Thanks!

I asked this same question, not long ago. Was surprised by the variety of answers. I have several extra gasket sets so will likely go with Veshra.
