The exhaust valves are the same as for the DOHC 750. And they should be plentiful as far as availability is concerned. CMSNL in the Netherlands sells them for $52.- but their shipping cost has become outrageous. Vesrah is another quality brand.
You may want to check ebay, like this seller in Italy:

I think K&L and Vesrah are the same valves. I've used from both brands and if memory serves, the were the same. They are affordable and seem to do fine. Only other choice are to search high and low for originals or pay really big bucks for custom ones.

Considering that the original Honda exhaust valves were quite peppered by 30-40K miles, how bad could the low-cost replacements be? Virtually no one is going to put nearly that many miles on a CBX these days anyway, with a couple of notable exceptions

I put all new exhaust valves in a 103,000 mile '82 last winter. After 8,000 more miles this year, it's still going strong.

Bob at CBX Performance can fix you up with the valves quite reasonably.
