Im sure it possible to change-out a guide seal while head is still in place? But might be tasking, pressurize the cylinder or feed rope down the sparkplug hole? The valve guide seals are the same 650-1100KZ's The disadvantage to that is you might be missing a key component of failure, that requires a bit more work, disassembly.

I may have knicked one or two while assembling the head but the straw method didn't wotk for me. I still suspect the rings haven't fully bedded in causing the oil issue. It isn't fouling plugs so I'l just RIDE.

About 1/4 a quart a month. It doesn't smoke and the plugs look good.
