    If the origional valve's have never been adjusted you might have some time before they need to be replaced lol. The origional titanium valve's have a thin hard coating, once that coating wears off they will wear out fast. That's why keeping the air filter clean Is so Important. I put stainless valve's & springs In my 450 over a year ago, and just now adjusted them for the first time. I had a guy here In Michigan cut the seats after learning that you don't just slap valve's In without cutting the seats

    I thought he was fair priced, he's highly recommended on TT. He put bronze exhaust valve guilds In, he supplied Ferrera exhaust valve's, cut the seats & Installed a set of Kibblewhite Intake valve's & spring's I had bought myself. The bill was under 300.00. He didn't seem to fond of Installing my valve's, which I kinda expected. He said the Ferrera valve's were the shizzle, If there ever come's a time to replace the Intake's again, I will put the ferrera's In.

    After talking with the guy a couple times now and the valves came up in conversation. He had them replaced with stainless "Faction MX" valves and a local shop cut the seats.

    I'm stoked. I get my taxes back around the 11th and intend to pick it up. I'm gonna need some upper body armor.
