    Not a question dumb at all ...

    I usually get the complete gasket set from PartsNMore in Canada as it's cheaper than a single head gasket from the Yamarobber dealer. Very good prices and reasonably good quality. They have lots of helpful stuff for our bikes.

      I've used the partsnmore gasket set as well. Good quality gaskets, and the whole set will cost you less than just the oem head gasket.
      I think I have a loose screw behind the handlebars.
