Thanks, Popgun, I can feel the energy already. I tried draining the oil into a pan, then funneling it down the breather tube with the drain plug off twice in hopes that it would flush out of the oil drain hole, but no luck. With the shims and cam cover seals that I ordered, I added an oil pan gasket just in case. With luck, the oil flushed it into the drain sump, and if not, I'll have some sizable holes in the bottom of the engine to fish around at least.
I can see a shim destroying an engine. That's not a small piece of metal!
No, not going to leave it. It may never do a thing, but I'd always know it was there... At least I have the CB, so I'm not without a bike during the interim. And all because just one exhaust valve was out of spec. Way out of spec, or I may have well enough left it alone.
