Author Message   Redefine420 Posted on Saturday, May 05, 2007 - 07:57 pm:        I'm wrapping the pipes on my '97 M2 and I need new exhaust gaskets for the exhaust ports. Last time I went to the harley dealer for an oil filter I bought and exchanged it twice, they finally sold me the right one on the third try. I dont want to go there and ask for a buell part because no one seems sure on what I need. If I ask for gaskets for a 97 1200 Sporster will they work for me? Is there a better alternative for replacement parts? Heres a couple pics of my M2 partially disassembled. I need to get it back together, I'm missing prime riding weather. <img> <img>   Redefine420 Posted on Saturday, May 05, 2007 - 08:00 pm:        Sorry, I havent figured out how to post pics on this forum yet. I'll get them up.

I need to have a minimum of $20.00 to place an order, so I have some shopping to do. Thanks   Eshardball Posted on Saturday, May 05, 2007 - 10:10 pm:        I'm not sure of the part number but the screaming eagle gaskets for S1 are heavier than the stock ones. Probably a good idea. I would imagine that the gasket is the same for the M2   Phatkidwit1eye Posted on Sunday, May 06, 2007 - 01:01 am:        If I remember correctly the Screaming Eagle ones are flat and wont work very well with the flared end on some of the headers. I've used the flat ones with my old force exhaust, though.   Eshardball Posted on Sunday, May 06, 2007 - 06:34 am:        I bought the Screaming eagle gaskets to install my Force Header on my S1.I was told that they are thicker than the stock part and should be used with the Force pipe. They work fine on the S1. Is there a notable difference between the ports and header on S1 vs M2?   Ragnagwar Posted on Sunday, May 06, 2007 - 07:38 am:        Just bought some, part# 65324-83A.   Kyrocket Posted on Monday, May 07, 2007 - 07:43 am:        Just for future reference, I was told by a pretty knowledgeable Buell service guy that if you're using the stock header then buy the Harley gaskets. If you have aftermarket then buy the Screaming Eagle. Which reminds me, I need to go get some too. How about posting some pics of the wrapped pipes?   Redefine420 Posted on Monday, May 07, 2007 - 03:21 pm:        I bought a set of both gaskets, OEM and SE. The wrap should get here from Summit by wed, its black 1 inch wide. I'll get some pics up asap.   Rick_a Posted on Monday, May 07, 2007 - 09:39 pm:        The difference is in the type of header flange used. If the flange has a machined or rolled flat edge the S.E. gaskets works best. If it's a tapered or mandrel bent flange stick to the stockers.
