Additional information
- Prevents oil leakage at the cylinder head steering cover.
- Clean the sealing surfaces carefully before installing the new gasket.
- For a proper seal, liquid gasket is also required. Apply this exclusively to the vertical mating surfaces between the handlebar cover and the cylinder head.
- We recommend this. Curil T2 or Dirko HT. In our workshop, we prefer Curil T2 due to the excellent sealing and easy disassembly for future maintenance. In addition, Curil T2 offers a significant advantage: should a small excess inadvertently enter the engine or automatic transmission, the material does not remain behind as hard residue. As a result, the risk of clogging oil channels, oil filters, or strainers is minimal, and the risk of engine damage or damage to the automatic transmission is significantly reduced.
