replacing valves
it turned out that my stuck valve was bent. guess that knocking wasnt combustion. anyways, when i get a new valve, do i have to replace the valve seat too?

You don't replace seats but machine them. A little test I did was after I put the valves in with a light lapping pour gas on the combustion side of the effected valve area and see if fuel leaks through.
Make sure your cam chain tensioner is good, This might have caused the bent valve by jumping a tooth on the timing or a slack in the chain with these automatic cam chain tensioners create on a quick decal at high speeds.

Be thankful the valve didn't break.Depending on milage ? Just replace the valve, lap the valve seat to the new valve, replace the stem seals. If it has a lot of miles just send it out & have the valves redone
