Alright i have just blown my 3rd head gasket on my 440 kit, after the second one i put the larger head studs in hoping it would solve this problem, i dont know what the deal is, any more sugestions on what i should do, the gasket kit is on its way again and anything before it gets here would be helpful. I was also thinkin my head might be warped but my bike has never really gotten that hott, at least not hot enought to warp anything.

Thanks Wreckless

 

Was the last head gasket you put in a layered and ridged metal gasket?

 

Yes it was made by cosmetic. if thats how you spell it

Do you usually torque the head back down after your first ride? I ran a leaky head gasket on mine for about a year with very minimal power loss. I finally did the heavy duty studs and a good head gasket and re-torqued them and it didn't leak up to the time I sold it which was just a few months or so though. Good luck.
