Got a air cooled 1997 Suzuki king quad, the head needs new valves and I really prefer a seat resurfacing.
I can probably buy new valves and lap/grind them in with a electric drill. I called around about resurfacing the seats, and nobody seems to be able to do it. One Machine shop, they had the arbor that would go through the valve guides, but did not have a chuck small enough to grip the valve... (he wants to do both a resurface and a valve grind on new valves)
All I can find around here is oilfield/industrial machine shops, or Automotive machine shops, would any motorcycle shops have this specialized equipment on hand?(and the jobbers that know what the f they are doing)
I'm talking about actually resurfacing the seats, not a home lap job. What would you do in my situation?
