Valve Clearances tightening
#29
Talk about very precise, that is artisan work mate, a box within a box...
Even the fabric is cut to a precision fit, well done Joe and yes that answers my question precisely, right sizes and amounts as i worked out from various posts.
Handy to know because ideally you want the shims to be right at hand during the job instead of having the bike sit for 3 weeks with the top off and the cams out.
And thanks to the forum we now know what to order to be ready and motivated by your pictures i made one of my little 7.48 mm. shims all lined up for a group photo and valve check sheet;





Also made a note of the amount of turns the cam chain adjuster is inserted to keep an eye on chain wear over time.
Thanks again Joe
