Hi guys!, So i've put about 2000mi on my XS since i got it back in July. Unfortunately now the left side cylinder has developed this gnarly head leak. It runs fine otherwise so i'm going to chalk it up to a 37+ year old head gasket going bad.
I was wondering how difficult is it to replace the head gasket? My friend was telling me I would have to re-time the valves/remove the cam's and such if I were to replace it.
Also does anyone know if the XS400 gasket set is compatible with the XS360 cylinders?
And lastly does the valve cover take a gasket or should I just use rtv or something similar when It comes to putting it back on?
Thanks!
