Gasket problem??

[TCALZ06]

I was looking over my bike tonight after the 5k service and I noticed gasket material sticking out from between the bottom of the cylinder and the block. This is happening on both sides of the cylinder.
How big of problem is this?

Possible over size gasket from new.If its starting to push the gasket out and weep oil yes get it fixed. I have been told that not waiting till the bike gets up to temp will cause the gasket to move. Aluminum and steel head bolts expand at a different rate.
