Adventure/Touring Bike Valves & Valvetrain Parts

The task of engine valves is to seal the combustion chambers, which is crucial for compression and performance. The intake valves let air and fuel inside the cylinders, the exhaust valves open when it’s time to release the fumes, and all of them have to be tightly closed during the compression stroke. If it doesn’t function so, i.e. if the valves struggle to open or close exactly as much as they are supposed to, the engine of your adventure or touring bike will generate pretty much no power at all. It may take place if the valves, their guides, or timing mechanism are damaged.

Also, your bike’s valves or valvetrain can start malfunctioning because of wear – a significant number of miles on the odometer may lead to the clearances growing and the springs weakening. The result is the chamber sealed only partially. Besides, severe damage may happen when a timing chain or belt fails – if it occurs, valves hit the pistons in most motors causing severe damage. Whatever the cause, get the job done quickly and efficiently using high-quality valvetrain parts offered in our online store.
