11004-3721 Head Gasket for Kawasaki STX-12F 1200 2003-2007

Head Gasket for Kawasaki

This head gasket is a replacement sealing component that fits between the cylinder head and engine block to maintain compression on the Kawasaki STX-12F 1200, and it cross-references OEM part number 11004-3721.

Overview

This head gasket is designed to seal the combustion chamber on the Kawasaki STX-12F 1200, keeping coolant and compression contained under the demands of marine use. It is a direct replacement for the factory sealing layer and is intended for riders performing top-end service or a rebuild. The head gasket for Kawasaki matches the original fitment and is built to handle the heat cycling that comes with regular jet ski operation.

Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know if my head gasket needs replacing? A: Common signs include loss of compression, coolant mixing with oil, or overheating. A leakdown or compression test can confirm the head gasket is the source.

Q: Does this gasket require new head bolts? A: Many marine engine head bolts are torque-to-yield and should be replaced alongside the gasket. Always follow the factory torque sequence and specs during reassembly.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
