gasket set advice

[Deleted]

gday again, ages ago i got one of these sets

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-RD-350-LC-RD350LC-Complete-full-Gasket-Set-/390121035173?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item5ad50695a5#ht_1281wt_1163

are they any good in your opinion? the reason i ask is there seems to be at times a problem especially head gaskets if they arent genuine. what are the critical gaskets in these motors,are there some that are ok from these sets,i will be using all genuine oil seals,thanks in advance,see ya ken

They are ok . but id use instent when fitting everything . I have used them before.

ken its just the chap shitty ones are so thin u could read a book thru them and also they dont fit snug or at all!the ones that have the 'eagle' logo are very bad from my expeirience.a lot has been said about gen yam head gaskets but if good pattern gaskets are used with instant there good enud and tbh if norbo uses them above doesent that say it all:o.the problem is that these bikes are near on 30 yo now and the head n barrells mghtent be exatly thru and square so instant makes up for that and really if u torque it down right and re-torque again u shud get them to seal up.only problems i had was when i dident use instant.....
