My CB had her 8k service today, all is well, 4 exhaust valves were "loose" and had shims added. Shop mechanic and I thought it was odd that the clearances were loose and not tight. Maybe it came that way from the factory in anticipation of the valves seating. Plugs were good so that means the bike's computer is compensating for the new exhaust pipe. Labor is a little more than I thought it would be.
$420 and money for shims, etc, brought the bill to $453. Oh well, peace of mind is worth that.
