: Uh huh. Seems I got the wrong impression then
: from reading about people scouring Australia
: and the States for valves. Info for the
: future, or maybe even for any other rarities
: that members may have lurking in the dark

: Rich,
:
: ZED-PARTS.COM sell exhaust valves for £37
: each.
:
: I believe inlet valves are still available
: rom Kawasaki at £25 each.
:
: Profiled valves are much better though, so
: are worth more.

: Have spent some time today visiting a
: company
: called The Cylinder Head Shop
: (http://www.cylinderheadshop.co.uk/) down in
: darkest Surry, to get some work done on my
: old Bonnie.
:
: While there I made some enquiries as I have
: read that valves for our big Zeddies are
: getting hard to come by. They are able to
: produce vales from blank forgings for
: vitually anything. I enquired about some
: rough prices and got the answer as follows:
:
: A 1 off set of 6 would work out at about £58
: each valve (gulp), but larger batches would
: produce some savings. 5 bike sets would be
: about £28 per valve, 15-20 sets would be
: about £14 per valve.
:
: These prices are for good quality profiled
: valves (allegedly) better than the
: originals.
:
: I dont' need any myself at this time (famous
: last words) but thought that I'd put the
: info out to the general populace in case
: it's of use.
