hi well im pretty much ready to put my engine top end back to gether using the ct sonic kit i got the thing is the gasket seti got is after market would it be ok to use the cylinder gasket or has it got to be oem one ? also where cani get a leak test kit or what do i need to make one
 
Depends on what "aftermarket" ones you got...

If they are green and papery, throw them away.

Order oem cometic gaskets from KOR.

Leak tester can be bought from Awk08, or you can look in the DIY section for the how-to thread
 
And when you get/make the tester, make sure it is air tight and procee with the following\/ \/ \/

just ordered a yamaha one for usa so ill just sit back and wait rather use the right one than end up wreaking what i got
 
There is a specific cylinder head gasket for the ct brand cylinders made by cometic. You need the standard 200cc one. Nothing wrong with using a new cometic base gasket. Just as good as oem. The cometic kit will come with a base gasket,head gasket,reed cage gasket.
