        description looks good but god help you if the picture is what you get cause I don't see what you need. I'd get clarification before buying this. every time I have a picture different from description I worry about getting burnt some kind of way.
        To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.

            yeah...I see some have already asked those questions so it says valve cover and head gaskets are in there

            ....thing is its sold through Amazon and they will back up the purchase if i am not satisfied...so I'm not real worried about that...Thanks for your input...

                Athena is the brand sold by PartsNMore, they're good gaskets.... It's cheaper to buy this whole set than it is to try to buy the head gasket separate.

                  Same Athena brand. I used this set on Addie. worked fine. If you buy separate gaskets remember to get Exhaust gaskets too

                      I have a set of the Athena gaskets here. The part number P400485850982 in the advert from amazon matches the part number on my kit. My kit says it fits 78-81 Yamaha XS1100's. The pic in the ad must just be a generic picture, as the gaskets in my kit are for sure XS1100 parts.
                      2-79 XS1100 SF
                      2-78 XS1100 E Best bike Ever
                      80 XS 1100 SG Big bore kit but not fully running yet.
                      Couple of more parts bikes of which 2 more will live!
