Valve check?
#11
(05-10-2013, 10:48 AM)The ferret_imp Wrote: I read somewhere that the Japanese, all of the big 4, really believe in the bucket and shim valve adjustment system. i have seen over the years fewer adjustment issues using this system over the old locknut and screw system, but as Flynrider said, in this low revving application, hydraulics would have been fine.



Ehh.... show me a car with hydraulics and a 8,500 rev limiter?


There might be one... but not off the top of my head...and certainly not the norm. Low revving for a bike is not low revving for physics of oil movement.
