I got a couple shim kits you can have....but you might as well go with Kibblewhite SS now, you'll be replacing shims after every ride. shame on you honda!


on edit to be fair....maybe honda addressed the valve issue on new models?

He said not water cooled,maybe not shim/bucket type. Your %100 right about The Honda I know Crf250/450. Honda blew it on that one. Years back,we got a 5 Crfs for our fleet. First time out,After 3 days.We had to pull start them,valves got tight. So we where faced,with taking 5 New Honda's apart to do the SS valves. Lucky for us,we still had our Xr400s bullet proof bikes.We got rid of the CRfs. Got Yamaha Wr450s.We still have all the Wrs zero problems,only adjusted the valves on mine.One time,Still have all the xr400s. I would sure like to see a picture of CRF without radiators.

How old of a model are you talking about? My moto is 2014.


2008....so maybe they corrected the problem on yours. I had agent smith do the ss valve job, just to sell it!
