Well, if the same part was used on other Hondas, the price would still be the same from the dealer. Unless I'm missing something in your question.

I am not 100% sure, but I think the DOHCs (CB750/900/1100F) used the same part. I want to believe that I used those on my 81 CBX when I replaced them. Too long ago, don't quite remember ...

Point taken, but I was referring to the other Honda seals that online are half the cost but look the same. You just can't tell diameters and thicknesses in pictures.

Now that would be some good info - if only you could remember .

I was looking for the same the other day and best prices for honda OEM stuff is on partzilla.com
Less then bike bandit.
Valve cover rubber settings are $4.19 it's -#8 on the list.
Also the headlight that I just bought is $38 it's quite bit more else where.
