Non sealing valves and exhausting out the intake

[saxman]

I've moved on with another way of verifying my results. Ultimately, the final install on the bike will be on a different head that doesn't have this issue, so I'm not going to stress about it anymore. I'll have some videos up showing the new valves in action relative to the stock ones later tonight probably.

Brief proof of concept video showing that the passive reed valves actuate twice as often as the stock valves:

I can't add anything brilliant, the video just seems like I'm watching you trying to start it.  But good luck, I hope it all works out as I'd love to see if completed!

Essentially the video is a proof of concept, showing that while the motor is turning over, the modified intake valve opens twice as often as the stock intake valve.
