Cometic C8890 MLS Head Gasket .023" 81mm Bore Yamaha FZ-07 MT-07 XSR700 Tenere

The Cometic C8890 is a precision-engineered Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed specifically for Yamaha FZ-07, MT-07, XSR700, and XTZ07 Tenere 700 motorcycles. This gasket features a compressed thickness of .023 inches and an 81mm bore size, making it an ideal replacement for maintaining proper compression and sealing in these popular parallel-twin engines.

Key Features:

• 3-layer Multi-Layer Stainless Steel construction for superior strength and durability
• Load-controlled embossments that help distribute clamping force evenly across the sealing area
• Stainless steel outer layers with rubber-binder coating featuring high-temperature and chemical-resistant polymers
• No sealants or re-torque required when properly installed on prepared surfaces
• Requires less clamp load and results in reduced bore distortion for improved piston ring seal

This gasket is specifically designed for Yamaha FZ-07 (2015-2017), MT-07 (2018-2021), XSR700 (2018-2021), and XTZ07 Tenere 700 (2021+) models. The MLS design provides exceptional sealing performance under extreme heat and pressure conditions, making it ideal for both stock and performance applications. For proper installation, ensure cylinder head and block surfaces are clean, flat, and meet the recommended surface finish specifications.
