skull leak

My bike had about a #2 leak around spark plugs when first rebuilt...after about 1000 miles it pretty much went away, so maybe there's hope there. Good luck.

Not sure whether or not the non-OEM head gasket can make that issue worse. I only mention it because the metal ring is in the stack-up against the cylinder head. If it doesn't compress in the same manner as the OEM gasket, well then maybe. I have a couple that leak a little, and I've never tried the punch process in the bulletin. Let us know how it works if you give it a go.
