Thanks to the poster who posted pictures of the new muffler gaskets. The dealer performed the 1k service and they had to remove the mufflers to adjust the belt. I was not charged for any gaskets. So are those gaskets not a one time use unless you are changing the mufflers?
If what you mean by muffler gaskets are the header pipe gaskets, then the head pipes do not have to be removed to take off the mufflers, just the mufflers themselves. I don't know much about the 2018 bikes but unless something has changed I don't think there's any muffler gaskets.
I didn't see the pics but assume you're talking about these ... which, for what it's worth, I've pulled and re-installed muffler more than once using same gasket with no problems (18 FatBoy).
Will also say the mufflers slip off (and go back on) really easily with these gaskets - no having to break the metals apart.
