ohh, get some gasket paper, can get a big sheet for like £5, make your own, I make my own exhaust gaskets, trans cover gaskets and occasionally headgaskets, its not hard and youll be able to make more out of one sheet if you ever needed too
A paper head gasket? :|

Asked the Bike Suppliers and they said because of the trouble i've had with the Bike they'll send out 2 Gaskets for free :-) hopefully that fixes the popping...
