On my scoot, if i reuse the gasket it leaks slightly. Best way to test it, install everything and start the bike, the kill it by plugging the exhaust by your finger. It'll either hold pressure and go WOOOSH when you let go, or if its leaking you will hear a slight hisss instead of it holding pressure.

Thanks.

I know this is old but....what gasket?

Exhaust pipe to head. It's a circular flex type that fitsinto a recess in both the head and pipe flange. Someone one here pointed out you can just slip the muffler off and not have to fool with the exhaust pipe.

Thats why I asked...why would you take whole pipe off?
This rear tire replacement is a pain in the ass...two different pullers,new bearing for rear fork,two seals....
Funny thing is dealer had gasket in stock for final drive. (bearings failing in final drive)

Gasket for the gearbox in stock? Musta been a big mistake!
