Exhaust Valves for a 1978 CB750k!?

Hi y'all. I can't seem to find either oem or remakes of these 4 exhaust valves!? Can anyone help me? vintage750 doesn't seem to have them and i believe bikebandit wanted like $50 for each valve! My mechanic said i might as well get new ones while i have the engine apart. Thanks for any help!

Also, i am looking for new piston rings for the same bike. Thanks!

Check with your local, independent shops as well. Mine will order parts directly from Honda, and they do not charge me shipping fees. I purchased new tires online, had them shipped, then ended up having my local independent shop install them due to problems I encountered ($28 to put the tire on the rim, and balance it -- after the struggle I had with the front tire, it was money well spent; didn't even try the rear tire, just paid the man -- I hate tubes)... I asked about tires, and what they would have charged me for the same exact tires: same price, minus shipping fees (around $25 for both tires, two years ago). It pays to ask. Cheers!
