Only one of mine went to zero, it would still start first kick. I went ahead and replaced just that one valve. A closed valve will ruin the seat if left too long and might break and cause lots of damage$$$$$.
Just follow the owners manual for removing the head, take it to a good shop that will cut the seat, and buy a valve, spring, and head gasket from service honda. A little over $100 and a day in the garage and your good as new.
A good tip to remember is once you have it at TDC you`ll have to rotate it 180 and remove that bolt on the cam gear, then back to TDC and remove the other. Everything else in the owners manual is very clear.
