Thermostat Housing Gasket

Post by Jonesy01 »

As per title, where do I get one of these little blighters??

Snapped the bolt off in the housing and had to warm it up with a blow torch to get it out, consequently melting the gasket :(

A drop of gasket sealer would maybe do in the meantime meaning the bike could still be run ?

It's a rubber O-Ring

You can get the proper honda one or a generic one from anywhere.

Or do you mean the the part that actually holds the thermostat? Can't recall if thats an O-Ring.

Oil seal, bearing and o ring wholesale stockists will keep them.

The stat housing is 21.2 x 2.4, but a 21 x 2.5 will work, grease it upon assembly .
The cover needs a 47.5 x 2, but a 47 x 2 will work.

Spot on dude :-)

If you want Honda ones...

Top / Bottom

O-RING,47.5X2 (1.95)

Side

O-RING 21.2X2.4 (1.40)

O-Rings

I have a few boxes of those O-rings knocking aroun, you usually find them at places like lidl etc for £5 or so, quite handy :-) Though some dont' have all the ones you need.
