Valve Spring Replacement?

[Karlos]

Hi All
I am refurbishing the cylinder head on my CBX 1000A and thought I'd take the opportunity to replace the 30+yr old original valve springs. I notice that the springs I am looking replace them with, (Kibblewhite) do not appear to have a "tight coil at one end as do the originals, therefore appearing to be able to be installed in either orientation. Has anyone out there completed this task please, or have any feedback on this manufacturer as a suitable replacement please?
Many thanks in advance for sharing your experiences
Karl

I know Nils used an entire Kibblewite valve train on a KZ1000 he restored.
Maybe send him a message. NobleHops is his site name.

I did indeed, no problems at all. My machinist considers them the best, and I think Mike Nixon is a fan too. Def recommend that if you use their valve guides you also get their valve guide seals. If original, then contact Gemesound and get his Viton valve guide seals. Also discovered that their valves require the use of their own keepers too.
