did not want to mess up you thread with this comment, Jam, so I copied only this piece of your post down here
did you ever think about the possibility, that rumors go just the other direction?
people who are satisfied normally do not brag about it, they go riding
people who are upset want to tell other people about it, they post the very same thing not only here, but in all the other forums they know of or read in
say you post on TT and 4stoke, too, someone confirms he did read about the same problem elsewhere (here)
and vice versa
so suddenly your one incident splits up into quite a number
I heared about lots and lots of valve incidents and I know lots of people with CRFs but not one of them ever had problems with their valves
