The OBSERVED Valve Clearance thread
#36
Can you guys who have checked your valve clearances tell me a little about the gauge you used, where you bought it, and how much it cost? Most of you have recorded your results in millimeters, and I would like to know if your gauges have .01mm increments. I have both metric and standard feeler gauges. My metric set has .05mm increments (.002 inch), and my standard set has .001 inch increments (.0254 mm). My VFR800 has a +/-.001 inch tolerance on the valves also, and I have been successfully using the standard gauges for my valve adjustments. I could get a more accurate measurement with metric gauges if they were available in .01mm increments. Thank you.
