Hey guys i bought an 1989 rm 250. rebuilt the motor .. but the head gasket did not line up but everything else fit.. i put a pic of the head gasket i got ( holes dont line up). cylinder head cast number 28c2 and E1
i think i need two o rings instead...
did suzuki change their motor half way during the year..everthing else on this bike fit like a glove just that one thing stopping me from ripping.
ty for any ones help

 

It does sound like you need the o rings instead. Double check your cylinder head to see if there's a recessed area for an o ring to sit in.

Now I have a 94 RMX 250, which is based off the 89 RM 250. However, my head says 28C1 and E1. That head uses a regular gasket, so yours saying 28C2 probably means you need an o ring. Not sure as to why there's 2 types of heads and gaskets for the 89 RM 250. Maybe one is california spec?

Good luck
