      You could try this guy. His business name is L. Lloyd Ltd. He is in Erie Pa. His e mail is Benelli6@aol.com I bought a complete gasket set, and a cam chain from him. His price was good, and he shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
      He buys up the inventory of bike shops that go out of business.

        I know Merriam Cycle has them but don't have a clue as to how much.

          Parts n More seems to be adopting the old addage Less is More for their XS11 inventory lately.

          They've been out of a number of items I'm in need of for a couple months now.

                You can also get the head gasket that comes in the Wiseco big bore kits - I can never remember the name correctly, but I think it is something like Cometic. I think you can get regular sized graphite head gaskets from them and they are very high quality - I think it was somewhere around $45-50.
