    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

Hi on looking at the VESRAH gasket set and the state of the rubbers which are anything but round and one of the copper washers for the outer studs was compleatly the wrong size I succumbed to buying a Oem head gasket and base gasket ( I have Oem rubbers)I noticed that the new head gasket has no sealing rubbers in the four outer holes like the old one now and the gasket is multi layered steel I assume this is this is correct?
I may not have made myself clear the question is are there any seals required for the MLS head gasket other than the oblong can tunnel one ?

Fwiw, the last OEM 'zuk head gasket I bought had nothing with it - the 0-rings were seperate purchases (and my, how they all add up), but that was before MLS. It was a source of intense annoyance that Suzuki didn't supply a complete Top End kit.
