1mm thick corck sheet, about 20 layers of grease proof paper, 1mm thick soft rubber sheet, stuff that is impermeable and that will allow for imperfections in the two mating surfaces. If its a gasket for the cylinder head it needs to be the same thickness as the original gasket.

Your nearest Motorcycle repair specialist - especially a small local long established one - should be able to sell you some genuine gasket paper.
