    I just bought one and they have dropped in price from last year. Last year I was quoted between $85-$95 from the local Yamaha dealer and when I ordered one last week, the sales rep told me it had dropped to $55 my cost. I'm talking about the rubber grooved "H" shaped one for the XJ750 1981. CND dollars...

    hey wonderdawg its a really good idea to replace the rubbers on the valve cover bolts at the same time if you haven;t done it already. They shrink down over time and quit putting presure on the valve cover causing the gasket to leak.
