§ 02 / About this part
What it is
Athena cylinder head gasket to fit Honda NX 650 (1988–2000); Honda XR650L (1993–2009, 2012–2019); Honda XR650R (2003, 2005, 2007).
This seal is the critical interface between the cylinder and the head. It maintains compression and prevents coolant from entering the bore. Replace this every time you pull the top end for a piston change or valve service. Heat cycles eventually degrade the material, leading to pressure loss. This part matches OEM cross-references 12251MN9003, 12251MN9013, 12251MN9741, and 12251MN9742. Always use a torque wrench to tighten head bolts to factory specifications. Ensure both surfaces are perfectly flat and clean. It is essential for maintaining engine performance on your bike.
