Oil them gaskets?

[bradleyheathhay]

I'm going into my '11 Grizz 700 to adjust valve clearance for the first time and when I button everything back up I'll be replacing all the gaskets / o-rings. The 5 I'll be replacing include (from the top down) both valve cover gaskets, cylinder head cover gasket, and the 2 gaskets in the crankcase cover.

Do I need to coat these gaskets with motor oil before putting them on like when replacing your oil filter?

i dont think you need oil on them, but thats just me.

What does the manual say for those particular gaskets? are they all oring style or are some of them sheet? i wouldnt oil sheet but would oil an oring for reference i suppose.
