    GS 750TZ alternator gasket

    The 750TZ I've owned and been very proud of the past year and a half has just gone the way of the whole series, at least to read many of the posts here and advice I've gotten elsewhere--stator down and out, all of 15 VAC. I've got a new stator on order, but I can't find anyone who can tell me where to get a gasket that fits. I can find gaskets from the 70's and later 80's, but the TZ draws a blank.
    Do y'all know if E or L gaskets will fit? GSX?
    Thanks for your help!!

    I got one at bike bandit have the same exact bike. You might also check www.partsnmore.com they sell a lot of old gs stuff. If I recall correctly the one I got had a little extra bolt hole on the inside of the bottom rear so it probably fit multiple models and was easily corrected by a pair of scissors. Remember to number the bolts as some are different length when you take them out. Makes puttin them back way easier.

      I could be wrong on this, but I believe for any given year, all same cc chain drive models would have used the same engine side case/stator cover gasket. That would mean, for example, all 1984 chain drive 750's would use the same engine case gasket. In any event, that gasket is thin and easily cut. Just use the engine cover as a pattern and cut your own with a small pair of scissors if need be. Most any auto parts store will have sheets of gasket material for cheap.
