    Suzuki Parts--Exhaust valves for oil cooled DOT heat.

    Anybody have a line on a good source of affordable parts? I need a set of 8 exhaust valves for a 1991 Katana 750 head on my Bandit 1200. I mis-timed my exhaust cam last summer and bent the valves. I took the valves out of my Bandit head, thinking they were the same size, but while the heads are the same, they are 3mm shorter. Any advice gratefully accepted. I am eager to get these RS38s put to work!

    Back when I was building a lot of the air/oil GSXR's I found it was cheaper to buy aftermarket stainless valves than OE Suzuki.
    That may be a local pricing peculiarity.

      I have a bag of 90 gsxr1100 valves, probably wrong size though.
      GS\'s since 1982: 55OMZ, 550ES, 750ET, (2) 1100ET\'s, 1100S, 1150ES. Current ride is an 83 Katana. Wifes bike is an 84 GS 1150ES

        Probably. Seems the Kat750 (88-97) and the GSXR750 (88-89) are special. I bit the bullet and ordered new from Ebay and Partzilla. The good part is I now know those RS38s are not THAT loud!

            They are the same size as Bandit 1200 valves except 3mm (3.5mm?) longer.
