Has anyone used aftermarket valve shims?  Do they seem OK?

We use the ProX Valve Shim Kits in our Service Department and on our Vet Team 4-Stroke bikes. They seem to be doing just fine.

09260917 ProX Valve Shim Kit KTM 250/450 SX-F/XC-F $55.95  
09260989 ProX Valve Shim Kit KTM XC4/LC4/LC8 $68.95  

 

KTM is going to recommend you only use their OEM shims for obvious reasons. Last I checked, they were very pricey!

I've used Hot cams before and they were fine (2 different bikes). My friend ordered a ProX Valve Shim kit for me and they look good.

When I needed shims for my 950 adv, the OEM kit was $300!
