About Cometic

This Cometic EST Gasket Kit provides all the necessary components to reseal your V-twin engine with confidence.

DONT FOLLOW PRINTED INSTRUCTIONS!
DON’T FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE BOX!!! It says recommended torque is 42 lb/ft. You know what happened at 32lb/ft? One of bolts broke! And I was lucky there was long enough piece sticking out to remove it without drilling out! Check photos.
