My buddy has a chance to get a GS750 from his brother in law real cheap. He was told it had a burnt valve. We are wondering how difficult it would be to repair this on a budget. Can head removal be done with the engine in place? Thanks in advance.

Not sure how much valves are, but plan on close to $200 for all the gaskets involved.
Yes, it can be done in the frame.
PM some contact information, I can stop by and give you a consult.

Want a copy of my valve adjust spreadsheet for your 2-valve per cylinder engine? Send me an e-mail request (not a PM)

I just did one on my 850. Spent almost $300. on gaskets, ect. Also I had spare valve, so didn't have to buy any, although I think they're not too expensive. I didn't replace my piston rings, so that would be more if you have to do that. terryleeComment

apply air to each cylinder...chances are there are no burnt valve's.
