Those O Rings look like they are for your pipe ....they go on the end that mates to the cylinder.

The other... I will have to think on a while....

Looks possible!

I haven't seen a stock reed cage in a few years now... memory is a little hazy...

Those two o-rings are the ones that go on the pipe, I believe. Wasn't there also a copper ring about the same size?

The rectangular gasket looks like the one that goes under the front KIPS cover.

Yeah, I think it is the KIPS cover. I don't think it is the reed cage because I just saw the stock one a few days ago and it didn't look like that.

i am pretty sure the round ones go to the dual giznorchies (if so equipped) and the rectangular one is for the framistan cover, which is right next to the pilot spark unit.

and ALWAYS hide the extra gaskets. never admit you have them! saves me a lot of time.
