I had to buy another center valve also... as whomever tryed to do the pin flip on mine, while the motor was not in my custody... beat the living crap out of my flapper.... to the point of it not being usable IMO...

hi don, the doordie pin flip (what i call it) all is described at 3.3 here http://www.hallbergs.net/kx500/
the pin flip went ok for me about the only thing that has lol

kaw rider:
I flip a set of pin on a cylinder and they loosen up and jammed up the powervalves and it stuck the powervalves and it was a pain to get out. So i tack weld the pins now.
