You should be able to call any HD dealer and find out.

Oops, I see you are in Korea. I can't check for you at this time here. I'm sure someone will. Good luck.

Talking about this ,did the engines for the tube frame buells always assembled with base gaskets?

Because i have a 96 s1 engine and that had only some clear rtv at the base.

If you measure the squish band (see the tech articles on the NRHS site) you will find that you can likely get closer to the desired 0.030 with no base gasket.

I did this when I went to a 1250 kit.

Just measure your local funny papers. Just use a good set of calipers. thats all.

The rear has started to leak at 35k

To have never leak again install a set of pig tails and the oil will never touch the base gasket.

I have already bought copper sets. If it leaks again I will try RTV/pig tail. Thanks a lot.
