Gasket?
Getting ready to tear my bike apart to re-jet the carbs. I havent seen anything about replacing gaskets on the carbs. Does anyone know if there are gaskets on the carbs??? Thanks guys!

you should be okay with whatever is in there now, if your bike is a newgen.

To clarify, the carbs are for the most part assembled with reusable O-rings which rarely go bad and even then it's typically due to extreme age and poor quality work by previous mechanics/owners. The one thing to be very careful about are the diaphragms for the slides, they're under the two covers on top of the carbs held in place with 4 screws each. Do not tear these, be very careful how you pull them loose from the carb body. Also, do not allow any cleaner to come in contact the rubber; I've seen more than one ruined by this.
