No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationNot sure what you mean by "dimensions". Are you trying to cut one yourself? I don't think it will work.
Here is a set that contains the head gasket for a 1979 KZ750 B4.

Problem is Vesrah does not make a full set for the 750 twin, but they do claim to make the head gasket which is their part HG 4014. have no idea if that is true.

Yes, I used it for my rebuild. The head gasket was good quality. The green "paper" gaskets were not good (the cylinder base gasket disintegrated in a few hours time) and the cheap cardboard valve cover gasket was crap. It's possible I got a bad set that was too old?Pop147 wrote: have you used the athena set?

Their web site says they don't make a set. If you got one and it doesn't fit, that sounds like they don't make a set for that bike. You can try the searcher here:Pop147 wrote: They do make a full set, i got one but the head gasket didnt fit thats why i was looking for dimensions.
