Does Kibblewhite offer the SS valves for it? Is so, you can put those in it and be done.
Del West for the valves I am finding out tomorrow if this includes new valve springs and retainersDoes Kibblewhite offer the SS valves for it? Is so, you can put those in it and be done.
oh i understand extreme heat...as i type this 105 heat index 111 .... not the hottest its been in the last weekThank you for the reply I have put far to many things into this 250 to change at this moment I do predict a new bike if everything turns out like I plan for the 2025 MY
Been busy with the extreme heat but I am picking the head up tomorrow then I can see what I did and did not get for my money
What is a realistic number of hours you think we can go given I go with a clean filter on rotation directly after first moto and oil after each event ?The DelWest valves are nice, but if they're Ti, you will run into the same problem. If you don't like doing maintenance, SS is the only way to go.
Not sure as there are too many variables. If you ride it easy, they can go for many, many hours between adjustments. I knew of some people who were hard on them and they were replacing valves every time you turned around.What is a realistic number of hours you think we can go given I go with a clean filter on rotation directly after first moto and oil after each event ?
It went 140 hours bone stock as far as the head goes was getting hard to start on occasion .....that's a few easy dad hours following my son and the rest all my sons from age 13 to current day riding 250 Beginner at a few local tracks in central Oklahoma
BTW we have been running Maxima in both holes 75wt in the clutch side 10w30 in the crankcase
thats one of the biggest "it depends" there is.What is a realistic number of hours you think we can go given I go with a clean filter on rotation directly after first moto and oil after each event ?

It has pro circuit springs with the Del West Ti valvesthats one of the biggest "it depends" there is.
right now in my heat and dust...50 feet...maybe 100.
if you R&R filters every moto thats about as good as it gets
down here in a 2hr harescramble the pros will actually pit and change filters as it gets too plugged
also remember that going to SS vs Ti means more mass. more mass requires more spring for control at the same rpm
if not its floaty floaty time and one off time and mr piston says hi to mr valve and then the gernade goes off
seen a lot of ugly carnage from that
ive not tested the 10w30 of maxima...but what i have tested of maxima was top3 of what ive tested (out of 92 samples)
super spendy though!
if its hard to start...those valves are done...way done...welcome to tulip city amsterdam
ive seen a crf250r pulled back to the pits because it would not start hot due to the valves
yes ive seen the cam gear spin on the camshaft...nasty problems occurIt has pro circuit springs with the Del West Ti valves
JE forged piston 13.80:1
Have you ever heard of a cam gear and the shaft separating from each other?
I am just waiting to get my friend to spot weld my camshaft/gear before I finish the build
Also I'm ditching the Honda factory timing chain adjuster for a manual billet style and I am curious the amount of tension to set this at I am researching that now
