Ex: .25 .33 .30 .30 .25 .30 .33 .28 (spec .28 +-.03). Two were out of spec.
In: .18 .18 .18 .18 .15 .18 .18 .20 (spec .15 +-.03) One was out of spec.
Thanks for the update Cormanus. Can you tell us how long it took for the mechanic to do this work? And this is a question for all: I thought that it was typical for the type of valve system these bikes have for the valves to become tighter (clearances decrease) due to wear, but it seems that we're getting reports of the opposite happening. If the clearances are increasing does this mean that the cam lobes, or the buckets, are wearing?
