Underside of cam cover - breather separator plate - gasket anyone?

[Guest mcfly998]

Hi guy's

I've taken the cam cover off and I'm going to have it powdercoated along with the frame and swingarm. On the underside of the cam cover there is a "breather separator plate" which is fixed by about 5 bolts - see attached. Under this plate is a gasket. I've stripped the cover down for powdercoating and I'm going to need a new gasket for this plate.

However, the plate and gasket don't appear to be in the microfiche, anyone know where I can find the part number? I'll try my local bike shop tomorrow, but I think he just has the same microfiche file.

Cheers

Mart

They possiblly do it in one of the gasket kits A or B. However, it could be that you need to buy a new cam cover in order to get the gasket!

As posted, corn flakes box is looking favourite... you could get some of the "crunchy nut" variety and treat yourself?

[Guest mcfly998]

You are indeed correct guy's.

If you want this gasket you have to buy a complete new cam cover.... the phrase "complete bunch of arse" comes to mind.

On reflection though, I think I'll have to go with Frosties for my gasket of choice, after all "They're great", and I'll get a kick out of having Tony in the engine.

Can anyone else think of a better breakfast cereal character to go into the big X?

Aye, it's just a fuggin piss take... indicative of our "throw away" society.

Like on my LDV Convoy van... I had a small copper pipe corrode on the power steering pump. Only a small pipe about 6" long, could you buy a new one? Could you fu*k! That'll be 500 quid please for a complete pump assy!

Got my tractor place to braize one onto the existing fittings and it cost me a tenner.... bloody comedians.

On the gasket choice...I'm still sticking with the crunchy nut cornaflakes myself.

Seeing as it's a muscle bike, I'd go with 3 shreddies!

Or you could buy some gasket paper for about £5 a roll.

Saw an ad on telly of a guy who won a horse race running on his feet after his horse got hurt and they claimed it was becasue of Weetabix. SIf it can make a man run that fast, what can it do for a bike!?
