Hey,

Can anyone point me in the direction of somewhere online to buy a head gasket for a GSF600S Bandit? (K4 Model).

Just want to shop around a bit and have looked at the usual places (wemoto, busters, etc).

When I looked at wemoto - they wanted £45 - this seems crazy money to me!? Confused Neutral Is this standard pricing for a bike head gasket? *grumble*

Thanks in advance!

I've often found some parts like this are actually CHEAPER if you go OE. Its got to be at least worth a phone-call!! Wink

Also 'cheap' head gaskets are false economy!

I know that, but I'm just not used to paying that kind of money for a head gasket. It seems crazy! Smile

Thanks Ham - Will check them out!
