I stripped a mate's TS1 to change the piston but broke the base gasket during dismantling. I wasn't planning to re-use it, but I find that I don't have a 200 gasket to replace it.
I need to set the squish. Does someone sell a pack of three (?) gaskets of varying thicknesses to allow me to set the squish?
I am looking for recommendations. Thanks
(yes, I appreciate that I could omit the base gasket altogether and machine the head, but the scooter worked fine before I took it apart and I don't want to change the performance)
