  • New Yamaha 800 Engine

    Hey SBT,

    Do the engines coming from you folks for a Yamaha 800 include the WaveEater clips or something similar to preclude a catastrophic power valve failure in the engine?

    Thanks,

    SBT Powervalve, retaining screw and SBT leverlink. In the original design the pin had the ability to work itself free, sliding out of the top of the powervalve and allowing the valve to drop into the exhaust port. SBT leverlink surronds the pin, not allowing it to escape. A much needed upgrade to the original design.

      Thank goodness for that. I really don't want to be bitten by that expensive design defect again.

      Is there a list of improvements available somewhere so that I can see what other improvements have been made?

      I'm hoping to order one of these today to replace my power valve destroyed engine...
