Default Exhaust Gasket

For some reason, exhaust gaskets over here are an impossibility at this moment. I ordered a set from one online retailer and after three weeks, they have still not arrived!

My service center does not have any in stock and orders them when needed. And they take close to three weeks as well for shipping. Does anyone know the measurements of these gaskets and could other bike gaskets be used? A friend of mine has some new gaskets that he purchased for ZX10 and they are not the right ones. I'm starting to get desperate over here!

Why do you need new ones? Changing exhaust? Have you tried reusing the old ones. Worst that would happen is they will leak, you will know if they do from the noise. Try it possibly.

I learned a long time ago that I am not mechanically savvy. Plus, the dealer wil not install the new exhaust unless there is new gaskets. CYA on their end. I have a very touchy dealer and if I do anything without them, they will attempt to cancel the warranty.

Gaskets finally arrived! For some reason, they got held up in customs. The box was partially opened upon arrival.
