bent valve? although the clearances are usually pretty big initially. and that usually hangs them. but you could have floated it and bent it. id pull the valve and look carefully at the seat, and also the area where the valve sits on the seat. your valves can tell you alot. how about a broken valve spring or something like that? the marks matt is talking about is important.

if one of those 8 things doesnt solve your problem, then youre fucked. start with john and chris' advice. then take apart. and there is no way your valve is stretching. unless its made of lead.

what size rings? i probably have a spare almost comlpete set of 040's. you might need to order one compression ring. if chris doesnt care if i give them away. i kinda left him all my spares. and i know there was an almost complete new set. tim, you should drop chris a note, or give him a call. hell have 2 350gp bikes at summit. so no guarentee....
