Next weekend I have some time to work on my 77' 550K. I need to get at the cam chain tensioner. I replaced all the top end gaskets about two hundred miles ago. Will I need a new head gasket to do this? I'm thinking yes, but I've gotten away with reusing head gaskets in the past. Never on a 4-cyl bike however. Of course replacing it depends on if I can actually obtain one by Fri.
I cannot remember if it was a copper gasket or a fiber one. If it was a fiber one I guess I answered my own question. I'm pretty sure it was a factory Honda gosket set. Thanks.
