[QUOTE="quicksilver, post: 216480, member: 375"] My shop told me, if everything was in tolerance, I would have to pay for the inspection. I told them to just get ride of the noise. IIRC, several guides were out and Yamaha picked up the tab. Everything. Even 10W30 oil listed on the paperwork. If you do not want to risk the cash, pull your header and look for any oil around the exhaust port (especially #1). It could only come through an oversized gap between the valve and guide. If it is far enough along to see that, no worries your guides are way out of tolerance and rattling around in there. ALSO, anyone having their valves redone. THEY ALWAYS FORGET TO ORDER THE NEW HEADBOLTS. They can not be recycled. Some persistant questioning will save you a couple weeks in the shop! Something like, "may I see the parts list? ", may work.
