Bent valves

[Travis Moore]

Here's a pic of the damage. Don't really know for sure what caused what but the timing chain is very stiff and I can tap the chain tensioner with a rubber mallet and it will open. I replaced the intake valves, chain and tensioner. It sounds good in the shop so I will keep my fingers crossed until I get a full day out of it.

Man, this is the post of the year so far!

Looks like the original problem might have had something to do with that blue can in the picture,

LMFAO Had to recognize my sponsors!

Went riding today and the motor ran strong at 18lbs with no problems. My hands are a little tired from hanging on It was a huge sigh of relief after the valve incident.
