That makes sense.



Raul is giving you sound advice. If it's not visibly leaking out and leaving spots everywhere, it's getting past the seals and rings and burning out the exhaust. You don't have a choice than to rebuild unless you want to just keep adding oil every day until you replace the bike... But that's not the best idea.

Of course it is,
how could you look at it if it was on the wrong side?

Is valve guide another name for valve stem seals? I'm trying to order parts off of cheapcycleparts.com and their terms reguarding valves is a little crazy and I'd hate to fix something that isn't broken and not fix what is

No.Valve guides are what the stem comes up through.The valve stem seals go over the stem of the valve & keep oil from going down the guide into the combustion chamber.They are what you want to replace.

Thank a bunch guys. All parts are ordered and I hope to be able to crank this project out next weekend. As much as I love the sketchy people on the bus, I love the space and babe effect the good old gz provides riding to class
