Got myself a little bit of an issue that im not sure about and hoping someone on here may be able to shed some light on it. I was going about putting new discs on my KDX and the gasket behind has ripped up when taking the old disc off.
From what i have found so far these gaskets are no longer available anywhere.
I know you can get gasket sheets and cut my own but i was just wondering if its a specific material/thickness? Anyone done this before that can shed some light on the situation.
Not even to clued up to why exactly it is there?
KAWASAKI KDX 125 brake disc gasket?

Re: KAWASAKI KDX 125 brake disc gasket?
Welcome to kdxrider.net. Thanks for signing up and participating.
Which year is your KDX125? What color (just so I can look up the exact parts diagrams)?
I am in the USA, where Kawasaki did not sell that model. I would like to look at the parts diagrams to see what you are talking about.
Thanks.

Its from a 1993 kawasaki kdx 125
Part no: 11060-1163.
It seemed to be a similar material to the engine gaskets except thicker. However it was orange instead of green/black (guessing thats just brand specific though)
Its literally just sandwiched between hub and disc. Perhaps just to stop contact between the two. Like i say not really sure. There are gasket sheets i have seeen on ebay/amazon that come in a variety of thickness . Could buying a set and matching a similar size to the old gasket. Then cutting it to shape be an option

WHAT IN THE WORLD! It is on the 1991 KDX250 also.
If I ever get around to rebuilding my 1991 KDX250, I will do like you said and just buy some gasket material. I have cut a KIPS gasket before from such material.
THANK YOU... for showing me something new, sir!
ALSO, thanks for showing me that parts place. I will definitely cruise through it. I usually use a Japanese place Impex.
