My drz currently runs 7.48mm shims does anyone know off the top of their head what the cb1100 dlx uses? And can someone explain what the different shims are, such as between 7.48, 7.5, 9s etc. not thickness but the diameter perhaps?
Thanks guys!
Honda uses 7.48mm diameter shims on all their shim-under-bucket bikes since the '90s. Most Kawasaki, Yamaha, and Suzuki use them too. I think they are sometimes just called 7.50 because they are rounding off.
Some of the Japanese 4-valve ATVs use 9.48.
