I hate INT valves >< stupid

[brent701]

I freaking sucked the INT valves up on the Stock head now...

went from a 2.40mm shim to a 2.10 and a 2.00 shim to get the .008 i needed. I ended up going with a 2.05/2.00 to get a .010 and .007 spec.. stupid quad.

Stock..

The 1st time was with a Yoshi built head with stock valves.
did it twice on that head. I put the stock head back on. and its now doine it.

I am at 2.00mm and 2.05mm shims so it may be time for a rebuild soon

Yea I know a bunch of people who had problems with kibblewhite valves so don't use them. I switched to Ferrera and haven't had a problem since.

there is a write up in ATV action magazine about using KIBBLEWHITE valves on a budget. I think its funny they are pushing them when everyone HATES them! lol

Sucks Brent, get the top end rebuilt and you should be ok!

Yea we've pretty much narrowed it down to the fact that kibblewhites are junk. Rudy at dfr has had numerous problems with them, actually to the point that he doesn't use them in any of the bikes anymore.
