Title: gasket interchangeability
Post by: gwcrim on May 09, 2003, 10:03:04 AM
I recently got a box of KX500 parts.  Some are gaskets from the mid 80's model.  Are any gaskets interchangeable with the newer engine?  I have:

11004-1156 head gasket
11060-1456 base gasket
11009-1963 clutch gasket

There are some other small gaskets and O-rings.

I don't know what year your bike is Crim but the catalogue I have shows that 89 through 02 (I reckon 03 as well but my catalogue is last years) use the same head gasket.

sorry but I don't know beyond that.
