Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that. I never ran the bike that hard. When I adjusted the valves I triple checked everything to make sure it was right.
You say it still starts and runs fine with no weird noises? Will a bike do that if one of the valves is toast?

I've just had a crazy thought- I wonder if those mud daubers or yellow jackets built a nest inside the exhaust and over heated the catalyst?

Last summer I found a couple of good sized yellow jacket nests, one under the rear fender, and one behind one of the radiator shrouds? Both of them were about 3 inches in diameter. That's when I bought the cover.
