Indeed. Or a really dirty one to make SS wear as fast as Ti.Jaybird said:It will take a pretty clean air filter to make the Ti's last as long as SS.
Has anyone documented valve flutter with ss valves on a dirtbike? It is not a roadrace bike.Tom68 said:If you run at the top of the rev range Titanium with good springs so the valve shuts without bouncing that way you'll get max horsepower. If you're running in the midrange run whatever you want.
From what I understand the flutter comes from inadequate or fatigued springs. SS being at a disadvantage because of the weight, but Ti still being suseptible if run with fatigued springs. The nice thing about Ti (at least on my bike), is you can replace the springs for about 6 bucks a peice. The spring kit alone for Kibbles is 200 or more. I would think the springs would have a service life? Even if you only replaced them every 75 or so hours, you would still have more in springs than a complete intake valve job with stock parts. I guess I would need to have some personal experience with SS before I could make the investment. Too bad most people I know are going back to oil burners. :debil:whenfoxforks-ruled said:Has anyone documented valve flutter with ss valves on a dirtbike? It is not a roadrace bike.
