Does anyone have a pic of a stock head gasket? I need to replace mine and when I took it off it looked kinda weird. This is my first 250R and I have no idea what a stock head gasket looks like. I'm assuming it's the right one but just want to make sure. I attached a pic. Also where is a good place to order a new one? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

yeah thats a stock one. if you use stock take the middle out ad only use the two thin ones.

It's just on thick gasket. I haven't mic'd it yet so I don't know how thick it is but it's only 1 piece.

I've heard a lot of people running the single middle piece or the two thin parts put together. I used only one of the thin portions with my new Wiseco piston, and got 195+psi; probably a bit more now that it's broken in well.
