yur bike wouldnt be running properly at all. If at all. do all you basic checks. I had a GSX 1100 and one of the HT leads were loose and it meant erraic sparking.

Sounds as though your bike needs a service. Including valve clearence check. Is it high miles? when did you last change the oil?

Andrew. It could be so many things. what makes you think a valve has gone? Have you done all your basic checks sparks, petrol etc etc.. Personally if you think a valve as gone I wouldnt be revving it like that.
