Needed urgently a 31mm exhaust valve

#1 PostAuthor: Padders » Sun Mar 30, 2014 6:39 pm

Hi I have a bent exhaust valve on my Z1 head that needs replacing but the valves are oversize 31mm. Martin has been checking and H exhaust valves are 31mm if anyone has a decent one for sale and could check the size please. Also APE and Manley do 31mm ones if any one has one for sale. This is the largest you can go on the standard seats and the bike is VOR until I can source one.

Does anyone know if any others will fit to help with the search.

Cheers

All sorted now thanks, Ray at Debbens sorted me out with an APE stainless one. It appears the ones fitted are Manley. Bad news is the valve seats need recutting so a big box will be winging its way to Debbens.

Thanks for all those that pm'd,called and text'd me with offers of advice parts and help appreciated you taking time out guys to help.

Cheers
