Default Which exhaust manifold gaskets do I need???

Hi,

I have a CBR 600 FX ('99) and the exhaust is blowing in quite a few places underneath.
I am going to get myself new downpipes which will sort the problem easily enough but my only problem is which gaskets I need for the manifold??

I've looked on a couple of sites and either they come with the downpipes at an extra £10 ish or I have found a site that sells them individually at 99p each.... not a difficult choice to make as which ones to buy, saving £6 is best for me I think

The thing is that the site I have seen them on (jtsmotorcycles.co.uk) has either copper or fibre exhaust gaskets and I don't know which I need or which are better??

I don't know what the old gaskets are like yet, haven't taken the exhaust off... I know that's the easier way, to just fit what's already on there, but don't want to take it apart until I have the new parts as I use my bike to get to work.

Thanks for your help!


Lou

No worries, realised I shouldn't be such a tight **** and for the sake of £6 I'm better off making sure I get the right parts.
Cheersfor trying to helpanyway x

They are copper, the same found on F3, F4 and RR.
