Heat expansion is real—if you're on the tighter side of the spec, it's safer to go a step thinner. Tight valves are what burn seats and drop heads, not loose ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Pairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eo \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/honda-4-stroke-dirt-bikes-performance-parts-accessories-moto-house-mx\"\u003eHonda 4-Stroke Performance Parts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eo \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/yamaha-4-stroke-dirt-bikes-performance-parts-accessories-moto-house-mx\"\u003eYamaha 4-Stroke Performance Parts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eo \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/motohousemx.com\/collections\/mx-off-road-motorcycle-tools\"\u003eEssential Motorcycle Shop Tools\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Moto-House MX, we carry the best brands in motocross and off-road performance.
