gasket

Hey gang, I'm very new to working on motorcycles in general, and I'm currently fixing up an old '79 XS400. I'm looking to install a new starter in the next few days, and I'm a little confused on exactly what is necessary to prevent oil from leaking out from the hole that the starter fits...

Hey guys... Got an '82 XS400 Special here in the UK Just about got all the paint done on my engine and getting ready to build it back up. I can't find a cam cover gasket over here or Europe. Does it have one or is a job for liquid gasket? Cheers all

Hi, I bought a Sanglas 400y three years ago and has been leaking on the left cover (alternator) since then some days a couple drops, some days more. My bike has the same engine as the xs400e so I've been reading the forum to fix this leak she has but it has been impossible. I have tried a new...

Hello all I have recently introduced myself on the forum but have since forgotten my username and password so started a new account. I’m from Cincinnati I work three jobs and go to school for auto tech. My current project is a 1981 Yamaha XS 400 special I got for 150 from a friend. The bike sat...

To get the best seal do I need to use anything with the gasket? I have a small leak on left side crank case cover and want to fix it. I ordered a complete engine gasket kit (over kill but I have the motor out so I figured I'd try to replace what I could) I've read thru the forum and saw people...

Hello all, I have been reading this forum since I got my bike about a year and a half ago but this is my first time posting. I have a 1981 XS400SH. Its my first bike and I have been working on it on and off since I got it, never quite enough done to have a safe, fully operational vehicle...but...

Hi all. New to the forum here. I recently bought a 1980 xs400g and the stator and the starter motor are both shot. Also, when I took off the stator cover (the inner larger one, not little outer circular one), the gasket broke and now it's leaking oil. Can anyone help me identify which parts...

Hey everyone, same thing as last time, I ordered another new gasket and it wasn't exactly hard to find, but it wasn't super easy so I thought I would scan for my own use and thought since you guys may eventually need one and like making your own gaskets here i would post up the scanned image...

This 1:1 scale, is listed as 1L9-15461-00-00, GASKET, CRCS CVR 2, on the Yamaha Parts list. If you print it make sure you print it as 100% (actual size) and it should fit on nicely on a normal sheet of paper. I had to order it for myself, and just picked it up and i know you guys all like...
