Ideal for preparations and replacements on quads, enduro machines, and motocross bikes. Particularly suitable for Yamaha YZ 450 F (2016–2017) and YFZ 450 R (2016) models. To be used during a cylinder head refurbishment to achieve a clean and ready housing for the valves and seats. Do not confuse with premium C630 nickel-aluminium bronze guides: the C674 reference offers similar tolerances but with lower strength and durability compared to the premium alternative.

Prioritise careful fitting and honing to ensure the sealing of the seats and the longevity of the valve train when restarting the engine.
