Head Gasket

Where in the UK can I get a Head Gasket for cb500s 1999 as wemoto only do full gasket kits.

Any of these any good?

Well... you can get one from Honda:

You might be able to get it a bit cheaper than lings, worth trying your local Honda dealer or independent garage - you won't have to pay postage then.

Aftermarket gaskets are available but as you mentioned they are normally part of a kit, in addition, if you are going to bother to replace the head-gasket (assuming that is the problem) it is worth using a genuine Honda one to make sure the problem doesn't come back!

Living in Ireland it's a disaster trying to get parts and could take up to a Forthnight.I use Wemoto most of the time and just waiting for an email from them to see if I can get it seperately.Honda Distributors in Ireland are a joke keep hardly any stock now.

There are M&P on ebay:

Although this is pretty much the same price as the 'real' gasket, plus I don't know what their postage to Ireland would be.

There is also CMSNL:

They charge very slightly less postage than lings, plus they would bill in euro so you wouldn't get stung for any currency charge/exchange rate stuff (hopefully!).

I am guessing that this headgasket is going to try and fix the starting problem you had the other day?

Dave Silver can get most parts which seem cheaper than a lot of Honda dealers, even if it's not listed on his website.
Well worth a call in my experience.

Yes as we can't find any other problem.
