Hey everyone, I just got a project 1994 F2 and found two bent valves. Has anyone had to replace the valves and where did you get the replacement valves?


I found some KPMI Black Diamond Valves for $30 here:
KPMI Black Diamond Valves for 1994 HONDA CBR600F F2 - PowerSportsPlace.com
Anyone ever used KPMI? Good or bad?

Thanks for any and all help!

 

I have seen some valves posted on eBay...

 

Yuck. Where there are bent valves, there might be more damage. Cylinder damage/bent con rod to start.

 

Good call, just picked up 3 intake valves and 2 exhaust valves for $16 shipped. Not sure why ebay slipped my mind.

 

I have pictures in my thread:

So I finally had some time to work on the F2 today and was planning on installing the new valves, but ran into a problem. I quickly realized that neither of my valve spring compressors will work on these springs. Flipping through the manual, I found part numbers for a compressor and adapter, but the compressor is $100 and the adapter is about $65. Does anyone know of a different compressor that will get the job done? It looks like the adapter is for 18mm ID, but after some searching on eBay and such, it seems like there isnt a kit that includes the 18mm.
