Pretty darn hard to ride a bike if you're a horse.

There ya have it , right from the horses mouth ..... ummm , not implying that Ken looks like a horse

Haha, thanks guys. You’ve all been very helpful, hopefully I’ll report back with a running bike soon. If not, at least somebody I’m sure will find this info helpful.

Adding some pics for anybody interested. Let me know what you guys think. One intake valve is for sure at the end of its life. I’ll be replacing both.

Is a recut of the valve seats a must if I’m buying new valves for a proper seal?
