ok i got the new valves installed pretty easy not modifications other that the dampening rods.  make sure to use a locking compound on the dampening rod bolt and torque to 15 ft lbs install spring if it wont tighten.



Gold Valve install

here is a few of the enlarged holes and adding 2 holes per rod

helps to drill a small hole after measuring and center punching a spot for the new holes. I used a cheap step bit and made them all 5/16. that worked fine I deburred the inside with a wooden dowl and sand paper then cleaned them out with carb cleaner followed by compressed air

this is what comes in the box
2 valve assemblies 
2 blank plates 
3 sets of springs 
2 circlips not used in the case of the cb1100
