So you're actually telling me that it can be worse than having to do a
top end job with replacing to intake valves after only 80 hours? On my
YZ426F I would have been through four sets in that case - fortunately
the valves still hold up well, didn't even have to re-shim them.
OK, titanium vs. steel, I know. And you may call me a lame sissy for not
revving my scoot enough.
