Complete Gasket Kit and Oil Seal Kit and pay attention to the early (K2) head versus later year heads with the different dowels and seals.  Be sure to get the replacement pads under the cam tower and the valve seals. I recommend the Cycle-X gasket and seal kits because they are complete.

Cam chain side-play?

New Rings?

Valve seats?

Tranny drum & shift forks?

Clutch plates?  Primary Chain for Tension and wear on the cases?
