I'm going to do a top end rebuild real soon and I wanted to know if head gasket from a CR250 will work. I know they are water-cooled and my R is air-cooled, but will it still work? If not, is there another I could use? I want to boost the compression a little. Thanks

Nope it wont work

 

Whats up with the 87R

 

So is there anything else I can do to get more compression? Have the head milled? Hey threewracer, your doing a rebuild on your 83? Do you know if they still sell piston seals and dust seals for the rear brakes? Thanks
