Balance shaft - is it time to adjust? And valve check question
#5
If you scroll to the top of the page , just under the little red cb1100 picture you see the "search" function, just write " the observed " in the search box, you will see the OBSERVED valve clearance thread on the top of the list, this is what members have found over the years to be a practical mileage for valve clearance checks.
I think you don't have to be in a hurry to do the adjustment yet but it is a good valid question, go have a look.

By the way the balancer shaft is an excentric stationary shaft ( with the slot and the clamp on the outside of the engine ), the balancer rotates around it, has a weight on one end, counter-rotates with the crank shaft to reduce vibration and is connected to the crankshaft through a gear, you adjust the play between the gear teeth.
