Where to get gasket sets?

stewbrash · 07-04-2021, 01:59 PM

After googling 'cg 229 gasket set', I get alot of cg 125's and one cg 200-250 from Amazon--OUT OF STOCK--so does anyone know where to find the gasket sets?

I only need the side case gasket, as I'm planning on installing the 4 degree advance key.

If you're careful you wont need another gasket changing that key.

Aliexpress and ebay seem stocked up "cg250 gasket kit" searches...how quick they'll be sent might be problematic though.

Yeah, they say "cg 250", but a closer look at the gaskets and they don't appear to match a cg 229. There seems to be plenty of vertical CG 150's...is that compatible?

You would think that this is an easy to find product since 90% of US imported China-bikes use this engine. AARRGG!

I will be the guinea-pig and since it was only $8~ on Ebay I ordered this:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/32181386428....c100227.m3827

After investigating further, I ordered this and will compare the two (mostly the head gasket.) It's nice to have plenty of gaskets!

a CG229 is a CG250 by all merits. Some gaskets are interchangable as the whole engine line up is based from the original Honda CG125...But there are some differences.

I purchased a generic CG250 kit and so far everything seems to fit. The head gasket was actually more of a 69mm than the 67mm. Side cover gaskets worked for me when I changed the stator side So i assume the clutch side will be fine.

The red rocker cover gaskets for CG125s are undersized for Zongshen CG250 Rocker Covers Ive discovered.
