Athena Gaskets?
Im looking to get a complete gasket set for my 79 GS750. I was looking for a vesrah gasket complete set But there a bit pricy. Has anyone ever used those Athena gaskets? Are they any good. They sell for a bit less than the vesrah.Tags: None

You might want to do a search but from what I've read, Vesrah has a much better reputation than Athena. I've used Vesrah gaskets before and can vouch for their quality.Ed

You can get a Vesrah gasket kit for about 70 bucks that's a sure thing. How much would you really save going another route?

I've used both and the Vesrah are definitely much higher quality than the Athena gaskets.
Actually, I'd say the Vesrah pieces are much better quality than OEM, although some consider that thought blasphemy.
Z1 Enterprises has the best prices I've seen on Vesrah gasket kits -- usually $70 or so.1983 GS850G, Cosmos Blue.
