No smoke at all. All looks good for now.

It happens where a valve seal lifts, but usually there is a clear reason, like bad install or spring issues. This is just weird to me.

lol, I've done worse! Just not recently

Nice. How many miles did you get out of the old ones? Or km's? I guess you guys aren't stuck in the dark ages like us and use metric.

I wish I knew exactly but I don't. My best guess would be 10000 klms... and they are not really finished. One is worn on the inside. I made the mistake of not redoing the alignment after having the rear cradle off so many times. I think that's why.
