Changing Your Vintage Motorcycle Gaskets

Vintage Motorcycle GasketsMotorcycles are so much more than just fuel-efficient transportation. For the avid rider, motorcycling is a passion that can last a lifetime. It may start with a ride on a friend’s bike, or the need for a frugal way to make your commute, but it can be just enough to get you hooked for life. From high-performance racing bikes, to sleek street bikes, rugged dirt bikes, and luxury touring bikes, there is a dizzying array of makes, models, styles and features for the motorcycle enthusiast. For some, there is nothing more beautiful than a vintage motorcycle that needs the loving hand of restoration. When undertaking a restoration project, there is so much more to consider than just body work. After spending hours making your bike beautiful again, you want to be sure the engine will purr like a kitten and provide you with years of riding pleasure.

In a motorcycle engine, like most engines, there are fluid systems that are essential to its performance. These systems rely on gaskets to seal the spaces between components and prevent leaking and mechanical issues. Gaskets are essential whether you have a dirt bike with a single-cylinder engine, a parallel cylinder Triumph Bonneville, or a cruiser with a V-twin. When you’re shopping for gaskets for your motorcycle, it’s important to shop for more than price. Quality is an obvious essential, but so is availability.
