I have the same exhaust never had any gasket probs though.

When you fit the gaskets are they slightly too large to fit in the head? Mine where (think they where part cg22 or something) and I had to push them in with a big socket, then tighten the exhaust up.

You can always smear it all in exhaust sealer if nout else works.

I got mine from sandy bike spares, he sells the pattern downpipes on ebay. Just ring up and ask for zxr400 exhaust gaskets.
