H-D exhaust gaskets

Sorry new to this post. Why HD gaskets? Are the HD Gaskets better/cheaper or do you have problems getting Kaw Gaskets locally. Just got my new V&H Baggers delivered and picked up new gaskets from Kaw Dealer locally. Hope to be installing these and Thunder Kit/Power Commander this weekend.

Its not that HD gaskets are any better, it just that most times Kawasaki dealers don't have any in stock, whereas the HD dealers always seem to have them.

it ain't the gaskets going up, it the dollar sinking down again. Check the price of a silver 1 troy ounce ingot......

Our Canadian dollar was doing ok the last couple weeks, today it dipped below the American dollar again. Im hoping ours gets a good bit higher by the time of our rally. It will give me more buying power on everything I buy.

HD dealers need to keep them in stock to take care of all the oil leaks they have to fix.

At least we have to ride our Nomads a lot before they start to leak. Not just sit them on the trailers.
