    story goes he burnt the valves out running straight racing gas and when he replaced them it was out of time (this guy should not be touching a motor) well when it stopped cranking over via the starter his next logical train of thought was to drag it down the road and try to pop the clutch and start it.

    It didn’t go so well

    I certainly haven't seen it all, but I can't say I've seen valve stems peaking through the valve head before. Amazing.

    From another Z rider, wow!! Hope you are able to get that engine back to life! Looks like an expensive one. Hopefully you got it stupid cheap.
    Good luck man.
