Having trouble finding valve cover gasket

[Guest]

Can anyone help me find the valve cover gasket I would need for my 1983 GS1100G? I've ordered a couple already and both have been wrong.

Here is a shot of my cover..

Put up a picture of your bike if you would.

Make sure you're ordering one for an 82-83 8V engine with 19 holes. The 19 hole gaskets are found all over the place.

You need to be ordering part number: 11173-49020 if buying OEM.

Here are an ebay listing that sells them in pairs for $12.99 in pairs with free shipping:

What was wrong with the ones you ordered. Please be as specific as possible. Not the same hole count? Wrong shape?

1 was too large. 1, the holes did not line up. Here is a picture of the 2nd one I tried.

That second one is for an older model 78-81 style GS1000. The part number I gave you above should work.

Much appreciated!
