Title: Valve Replacement and Seals
Post by: oracleofmist on September 30, 2008, 07:06:26 AM
Hey guys,

I have managed to burn out one of my exhaust valves, right cylinder, and will be getting the pleasure of doing a valve replacement. I called my local suzuki dealer for 2 exhaust valves and a valve seal kit (GS500f 2006) and they said they can get it directly from the suzuki dealer for 104 and some change. I have been hitting google up for a bit trying to find where i can purchase them myself and possibly get them a little cheaper. Any ideas?

If you torched a valve, expect the seat to be damaged.
