To save a fortune on gasket sets could I get this instead?

Never even heard of the gel!

Trying to save money in this way could end in tears and a lot more work in the long run? ::)

Im guessing that you are not 100% on if its affective and reliable then?

Gasket set for my thundercat is £120!

Use the gaskets.

The bike has been toleranced with the gaskets.

[Snowy]

Use the right gasket for the job. I only use sealant where its specified by the manufacturer and its usually in conjunction with a gasket anyway.

Surly you can look for cheaper sets than from origonal yamaha? and i do see what your saying its nearly half the price of what the bikes worth to rebuild.
