I have just replaced the cylinder, piston, and head on my R. New wiseco top end kit with gaskets and all. Now the problem....
It seems that the head gasket started leaking today, but it doesn't appear to be leaking into the cylinder just seaping outside of the cylinder. Has anyone ever saw this before, should I just retorq the head bolts? It is the fiber material type of gasket.
One other thing, I noticed the holes in the head gasket didn't match the holes in the cylinder and head. It had a few of the holes that matched, but most were just about a 1/4" hole through the gasket. Is that normal?
