Default Titanium Valves Should I/Shouldnt I?kfx-450

Yoshimura has asked me if i would like to put titanuim valves in. I told them of course, so they are putting in two tit. intake valves but i was thinking i should do the exhaust valves as well. With the titanium valves will my engine rev up faster and easier?????? What do you guys think. SHARE SOME THOUGHT>

Ti valves reduce the moving mass of the valve train. You can run more aggressive cams without worrying about valve float as much. They do require more maintance. You will have to check valve clearances more often. Just the same as if it were a CRF250 or a YZF250. They have Ti valves.

They work better with race gas because of the lead in it. I think. lol
