Word of warning
« on: August 09, 2018, 02:23:52 PM »
Beware of some of these DSS valves when buying. The repro valves that DSS are selling at the moment have a smaller stem than the OEM ones. So, if you have a bent valve to replace then you will have to replace the valve guide and ream to the repro valve.

EX valve DSS stem  6.530
EX valve OEM stem  6.545

Do these refer to a particular bike Graham? I have ordered new exhaust valves for the cb250rs?
