Valve Cover Gasket
2007 Ninjette Valve check...need the gasket but want to make sure that I'm ordering the right thing...
Part #11009 the correct one? If so, is there anything else that I need? Do I need the 11009A's? |

How many miles on your bike?
I checked the valves at 15k miles and didn't need to replace any of those. My bike is 2013 N300. However, from the diagram, they seem to be the same gaskets. |

8500 miles. I plan to ride it until it falls apart, at what I am hoping is 100k+ miles. I have a cruiser, but this is my go to bike for just plain FUN. Every time I think about selling it or trading it in...I ride it and change my mind. Last time, I was on my way to a dealership for a bike that I really want....got 10 miles and turned around. I may end up being the last one left on this forum when it's all said and done...hopefully.

WOW! Very low miles for a 2007. Hopefully you will correct that and put many happy miles to it.
Mine being a 2013 is not that young either, but when I pulled out the cover, everything was in good condition. I put liquid gasket on the rounded parts and kept the three gaskets. It holds fine. No oil coming out. |

I would order 92055 as well. At this age milage is irrelevant. Rubber gets hard and you are better off replacing all the rubber where you can.

I guess it depends on the rubber quality and where is the bike kept.
My 1986 Honda Interceptor still had all original gaskets and rubber hoses the last time I used it in 2012 (26 years). It had 35k miles, not many. No leaks of any kind. Always kept indoors. Even the brakes o rings were the originals. Only carburetors o rings were replaced once in a while. For me, if the gasket looks good, as in with no cuts and not dry, then it's good to go. Especially if it wasn't letting oil out before the service. |

You. might already know that but you also need sealant to seal the crevices where those half circle pieces are attached to the flat gasket.

It's kind of a classic. I'm sure there are many out there still running. |
