Gaskets are among the most important wear parts in the engine and many other assemblies of your BMW R100GS, BMW R100GS Paris-Dakar, BMW R100R, BMW R100RS Classic, or BMW R100RT Classic. They ensure that oil, fuel, and air remain where they belong, reliably preventing leaks and loss of performance. At Hornig, you will find an extensive range of gaskets and gasket sets for classic BMW R2V boxer models – ideal for maintenance, repairs, or complete engine overhauls.

Engine Gasket Sets – Complete Solution for Overhauls

For a comprehensive engine overhaul, complete gasket sets are recommended. The Engine Gasket Set 1000cc contains all essential gaskets for R100 models from 1980 onwards, including cylinder head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, oil pan gasket, and numerous O-rings and shaft seals. Additionally, there is the Engine Gasket Set 800cc designed for smaller boxer variants. These sets are ideal for renewing all relevant sealing points at once during an engine overhaul and ensuring long-term leak-free operation.

Cylinder Head and Base Gaskets

High-quality gaskets play a crucial role in the combustion area. The Cylinder Head Gasket R2V 1000cc, the Cylinder Head Gasket R2V up to 900cc, as well as performance upgrade variants like Cylinder Head Gasket 1010cc, Cylinder Head Gasket 1043cc, and Cylinder Head Gasket 1070cc ensure secure sealing of the combustion chamber. Complementing these are the Aluminum Cylinder Base Gasket, Large Cylinder Base O-Ring, and Small Cylinder Base O-Ring, which reliably seal the transition between cylinder and engine case.

Shaft Seals & O-Rings – Protection Against Oil Loss

Precisely manufactured seals are critical for rotating components. These include the Front Crankshaft Seal, the Rear Crankshaft Seal, and the Front Camshaft Seal. They reliably prevent engine oil from escaping at critical points. The range is complemented by O-rings such as the Oil Pump Cover O-Ring, Pulse Generator O-Ring, and Oil Drain Plug Seal, ensuring secure sealing throughout the entire oil circuit.

Special and Additional Gaskets

In addition to classic engine gaskets, Hornig offers numerous special solutions for different applications. These include the 16mm Tappet Tube Gasket and 18mm Tappet Tube Gasket, the Oil Intake Manifold Gasket, the Engine Breather Gasket, as well as the Large Chain Case Cover Gasket and Small Chain Case Cover Gasket. Solutions for peripheral components are also available, such as the Gasket Set for Karcoma Fuel Tap or the Fuel Cap Gasket, covering nearly all relevant sealing points on the motorcycle.

Sealing Brake and Drive Components

Gaskets are also important outside the engine. The BREMBO 38mm Caliper Seal Set and the Caliper Seal Set ensure reliable brake system operation. For the drive area, there is also the Large Rear Drive Shaft Seal, which prevents oil leakage in the final drive and thus contributes to safety and longevity.

Why High-Quality Gaskets Are Crucial

With increasing mileage, gaskets lose elasticity and can become brittle or start leaking. Timely replacement prevents oil loss, performance loss, and consequential engine damage. Especially for classic BMW R100 models, it is advisable to renew several gaskets at once during maintenance or to use a complete gasket set to ensure long-term reliability.

Precisely Fitting Gaskets for Classic BMW Boxers

All gaskets in the Hornig range are specifically tailored to the requirements of air-cooled two-valve boxer engines. They impress with high precision, durable materials, and reliable sealing – ideal for everyday use, touring, or restoration projects. With the right gaskets from Hornig, you ensure that your engine remains permanently sealed and can deliver its full performance.
