Gaskets?
« on: August 26, 2016, 06:44:46 pm »
I've had an FT500 for a number of years but have never ridden it.  Now the starter disengages after about one turn, so I'm digging in to the problem.

But I need new gaskets.  The starter drive cover specifically.

Any gasket sources out there?

Don't know of any off the top of my head. Check Bike Bandit, eBay, etc.

You may have to cut one out of gasket material. Be careful with the original so you can use it as a pattern.

Good luck

You might try a site called Thumper Stuff.

I just purchased a COMPLETE gasket set for an FT500 on Ebay. It was a total of something like $45
