Anyone had problems with either of these gaskets? does the cosmetic gaskit kit come with all the gaskets you need? Thanks

Cometic are great gaskets and are reasonably priced. I've used them on several 400ex rebuilds and have never had a leak. The kit comes complete with everything for a top end rebuild. I've heard the Honda gaskets r good as well.

both are good gaskets. the cometic is nice because it is a kit. you can get a full one and have everything you will need for a long time.

dude get a honda kit. i got the gasket kit for my rebuild, and i got gaskets for everything. if theres a gasket above the crankcase, it has it. i mean you get new valve seals,exhaust gaskets, so many more. and there OEM quality!!!

You get the same with the cometic kit.

basically, if money is tight then get which ever one is cheaper. either one is a good quality.

Nobody ever mentions Tusk. Hopefully they aren't a bad gasket set. I'm getting ready to put them in mine.

I'm goin with cosmetic kit. I did see the tusk kit but, for the small price difference I'll go with a name I know. Hopefully the tusk are good too. The last thing any of us needs is people making and selling poor quality atv parts.
