Valve adjustment

Post by CBXJOHNNY »

Checked the valves and 10 of them are .008 / .203mm. Can I remove shims and rotate motor and remove another shim to see how many and what size I will need. Or is it one at a time. I don't think I can but want to ask anyway. Thanks

You need to take out and mic the shim in there and record it. Then put it back in before you rotate engine.

I use this on every bike I do and it really helps.

Any feedback on it, or errors found, suggestions for improvement greatly appreciated.

Enjoy!

Cheers...Tony.
