Place in NY to get seats cut and new valves done?
Permalink  

Like the title says, any places around to get seats and valves done for a good price? I live in Elmira and the few dealers around here dont do it... The bike is a 09 kx250f.

Are you sure that's what you need done? In my 2007 KX250F I removed the valves and cleaned them with a brass brush and gun solvent. Did the same thing with the valve seats. When I reassembled I replaced the valve stem seals and valve springs after checking to make sure the valve guide wobble was still in spec. You can check the valve edges and valve seat with a magnifying glass for pitting just to be sure of their condition. Bike runs flawlessly, starts quick, and has great power. Did all this in combination with a new piston and rings.

best way to do it is buy new valves, re cut seats to match new vlaves, we do all of our own stuff.

I have carbide cutters & spring compresser.  I can cut the seats and install the new valves for $90. I highly recommend you buy new springs and collets as well. I'm in Ithaca, so you can bring the head and new parts up pretty easily.
