It's not entirely surprising that the gaskets are close--all of these bikes have engine serial numbers beginning with NC13E (NC21-NC35).

Is it the same deal with valve cover gaskets as with head gaskets?
As from my understanding the valves are bigger on nc30 and the spark plug is smaller so the gasket that goes around the spark plug is bigger. Any problem if it gets trimmed a tad?

Has anyone actually tried the whole nc30 gasket kit that is available on ebay?

What about the rest of gaskets and seals fitment?

Thanks
what gasket that goes aroudn the spark plug is this?

you have a head gasket and a rockerbox gasket.

sparkplugs and valves dont have gaskets...

I meant the rocker cover gasket/ valve cover gasket
Close to the one on my bike, the round things.

ah the rockerbox gasket. I belive they are the same size.. the plugs are smalelr but the plug hole is the same size on both i think.

if not youll have to re-make.. all you need to do is get somebody to measure the diameter of the plug hole on an nc30 and measure your nc24 one (only need to remove plug cap)

and compare size
