    OnLine Source for Valve Cover Gasket.

    My closest Suzuki Dealer is 55 miles away and I don't want to drive up there [-( . Where can I order gaskets from online?

          Get a silicone gasket from Real Gaskets.

          http://www.realgaskets.com/files/motorcycle.htm

          They're the same price as the OEM one, they can be reused indefinitely, and THEY DON'T LEAK. I have them for both my 750 and 850.

          The '78 750 takes the same one as the early 850 P/N RG-GS850-G1 The 850 is just a bored out 750. It uses the same head and valve cover.

          They're great people to deal with as well.

          Pay attention to the directions about torqueing the bolts. You need to go only about 1/2 to 3/4 turn after finger tight, and you should check them after the first time or two the engine gets hot.

          If you do a search here you'll find other info about them.

            I second the Realgasket advice. Those things are INCREDIBLE!

            Another good source for valve cover gaskets and lots of other assorted stuff we need is Cycle Recycle II in Indianapolis.

              I used realgaskets.com on both bikes. The are about the same price and they work perfectly and will last forever. Don't forget the breather cover while your at it.

                Are the 1978 and 1979 the same gasket? There is not a breather gasket listed for a 1978 gs750
