R1200s stuck exhaust valves

Guess you need to wait and get a better idea as to what the dealership found??

Got the bike back from the dealer. Thought I would instantly recognize the foreign piece that bent the valves, but I was surprised when the dealer gave it to me. It's obviously a bit that goes into a drill bit adapter or screwdriver. Best I can surmise, I must have put something into the cylinder to confirm TDC. The top of the bit has been sheared off, and the dealer didn't find the rest of the piece in the engine. Wonder where.....
Thanks for your help.

That'll do it..

Damn, that's a shame! Expensive lesson!
Oh well, no one got hurt!

No one got hurt! One of my late father's favorite remarks. I could do all kinds of damage and he would look at me and ask if anyone was hurt. If not, he would just go back to what he was doing. Thanks for the memory!
