Yamabond?

[Ronkom]

Back in the early 1970's, I was a partner in a bike shop. We used a Yamaha product to insure a good seal in the vertically split cases used in two-stroke singles. I remember it as a silver colored silastic of some sort that I think was called Yamabond. Anyone know if the stuff is still available?
thanks,

Threebond 1211 does the same job very well.

I use Loctite Master Gasket.

I carry a small syringe of the stuff in my backback on the bike.  Have used it on a trip when I got annoyed listening to a rapid tappet.  Tore the rocker gasket; just glued it back together with Master Gasket, waited 10 minutes and away again Jack.

Ron: Hondabond is easier to find and virtually identical.

Yamabond #4 was the stuff for metal to metal, like engine cases. #5 was for use on gaskets.

OR you could use Permatex High Temp gasket maker, comes in a number of different colours. It works really well and is affordable.  DonG

For gaskets in places that come apart on a regular basis like sump & rocker cover, I really like this. Oil & fuel resistant, helps to seal and prevents gasket damage on disassembly + no scraping.
