Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need separate valve-guide clips with this Kibblewhite guide?

No. This Kibblewhite valve guide has a machined shoulder and does not use a separate OEM-style valve-guide clip. Do not order or install valve-guide clip 73-0939 with this guide. Separate clips are intended for compatible stock-style valve guides.

Does this valve guide require professional installation?

Yes. Valve-guide replacement requires precision cylinder-head work. The guide bore must be measured and properly sized after installation to establish the correct valve-stem clearance, and the valve-seat alignment must be checked. Installation should be handled by an experienced motorcycle machine shop.
