hello i was looking for a gasket set for my 125 dragfar, i had noticed there is far too much in the variation of price, for example a full gasket set on ebay for 30 quid, or a full set elsewhere from 70 quid and so on, as i have never bought gaskets for bikes before i wondered what is the difference (besides price) ? are cheep gaskets more likely to fail ? is it a case of "buy cheap and buy twice"? is there a brand that is worth avoiding ? is there a brand that is worth going after for all the right reasons ????????????? please advise

never had gaskets go on me, i even make my own.

The most important one is the head gasket, sealing in the expansion gasses!

you need a torque wrench too, impossible/dangerous to guess tightening forces

Don't buy the cheap ones. You would be better off with a cornflake box.
