Does anyone have, or know where I can borrow, a small valve spring compressor. I have one but it is too large to fit onto a Tiger Cub head which I am trying to get back on the road asap. Cool Any help would be appreciated  Very Happy

I've got a spring compressor, but it may be too big for the Cub. You're welcome to come over and have a look at it though.

Could you fashion something using a piece of appropriate sized steel tube? I'm sure that's what I did with my VT.

Here you go John...

Try these folks. They did a good job on my TDR, which I admit doesn't have valves. Well actually it does, but they work differently to yours...

I've had bad experiences with SEP Mark.  I have a small valve spring compressor as well (suitable for Honda 50 type heads).
