Would any of you guys recommend anyone who could replace the exhaust valve guides on a 550F2 in the north west area.
Thanks

Replacing is easy, its having the right size reamer and the seat cutters!
Is Bill Smith still a dealer in Chester? If so he was a big dealer years ago so ought to have the correct tools
