Cometic 1999+ Suzuki GSX1300R 85mm Bore .030 MLS Head Gasket

This is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket specifically made for the 1999 through 2020 Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa. It's designed to seal the combustion chamber and coolant passages between the cylinder head and the engine block, ensuring proper compression and preventing leaks.

The MLS construction uses multiple layers of stainless steel with a specialized coating. This design offers improved sealing performance over traditional composite gaskets, especially under the high pressures and temperatures found in performance engines like the Hayabusa. This particular gasket is sized for an 85mm bore and is .030 inches thick, which is important if you're rebuilding or modifying your engine to specific tolerances.

Using a well-built head gasket like this one from Cometic is crucial for maintaining the integrity of your engine's top end. It's a key component when you're performing engine work, whether it's a routine replacement or part of a more involved build.
