I used Nightingales. The were cheaper than silvers but phone around. Try Riders too and give Silvers a ring

Re: NC23 Head gasket - cheapist place
The genuine Honda Tri Arm head gasket is a strange one - I have paid anything from £32 to £58 for a single unit - the price seems to vary for no reason.
Think of it this way - good old Honda still making these 20 plus years down the line. The Tri Arm remains my favorite bike full stop.
Shop around - some dealers may have old stock they wish to sell off ...
Hope that helps.

Re: NC23 Head gasket - cheapist place
does the gasket have to be new?
I have the gasket iv just removed from an engine im taking to bits. I also have the gasket that goes between the cam head and the bit afterwards?
I dont know if u can re-use head gaskets - if not then please say someone so i can bin mine
