[QUOTE="bergmen, post: 1330975, member: 15189"] Yep, I ordered (and received) the valve cover gasket, timing cover gasket, CCT gasket, coolant pipe O-rings and the rubber washers that go under the valve cover bolts. Also OEM spark plugs. On some bikes I've worked on (Kawasaki first Gen Concours for instance), the valve cover gasket never needed changing. On my ZRX1200R engine, it needed changing every time (it would get a compression set and lose pliability). I'm not looking forward to having the Feej out of commission since this is the heart of the riding season. But, I will be taking a week to ride up to the Columbia River Gorge in September and I want to do this job before I go. Dan [/QUOTE]
