running the stock push rods in the race bike & as you can imagine it gets a lot of
rapid accel/decel & never complains. How many miles on this bike? I would
suspect a worn guide causing the valve to seize or as someone else pointed out a
blown head gasket allowing the push rod to heat up to the point of bending.
