Z1000 2015 Exhaust Gaskets

[Deleted]

Hi all,

bit of a weird one. I have a 2015 Z1000 that I'm changing the exhaust on. Old exhaust is now off and there are no exhaust gaskets. The new exhaust says to fit the existing or new gaskets (I've bought new), so I assume there should be gaskets already present but there are none. I've had the bike since new and the exhaust hasn't been touched. Is this a normal thing or has there been a problem at the factory? If it's normal, do people fit gaskets with a new exhaust or not?

Thanks all

there is a gasket, check it isnt in the cylinder head downpipe hole it can look as if it aint there and needs prying out. part 11060
