Has anyone found any exhaust donuts at Napa or some other parts store that will work on the Valk. If so do you remember the part number. I need some and don't wont to buy from dealer.

Viking had aftermarket exhaust gaskets. I'll have to ask them where they got them from.
My supply is low also.

I carry a set of the Viking ones in my saddlebags... maybe one day that'll be what someone needs on some group ride... I don't want to use them, I ordered them when I first got my bike cause people said they were the bee's knees, but I like the Honda ones better... -Mike |

I'm not aware of any gaskets that will interchange,, there probably are some though.. The OEM copper rings are a bit pricey and can be stinkers at times to get to seal completely.. I too prefer the fiber gaskets from Viking,,but,, i was under the impression that they are no longer available..

I haven't looked at my set in a while, but those look similar to the Viking ones... -Mike |

I just installed the ones from ebay and they are very good. I couldn't believe that when I went to replace mine there were none in there. I've had dealers take the pipes off to change out the rear tyre and obviously they haven't been replaced or reinstalled. Damn the bike runs well now! I'll be getting another set of the ebay ones for backup.

I'll bet you have two sets of gaskets now. sometimes they are hard to see, but they are in there. you'd have some nasty leaks if they weren't. They are just smashed so flat they have to be pried out. |

yep great motor. I'm really impressed by the power levels of the 340 and 360 when a stroker crank is put in. my duster is #s matching, w/factory 4sp, and factory A/C. |
