don't know if this is just a crf 450 problem or whether the trx have it too
the intake valves go out of spec real fast i've done a bit of research
and found the seat wear and valves stretch apparently
has any one had this problem??
if so what did you do to rectify the problem??
i was going to get one of these replacement heads but id like some other options

thats about the only way mate, you'll need to get better valves and if you go for stainless then you need different springs too.
