Cbr1000f tappet tool,
 

Where would i find one, no luck so far.

I crafted one with a 10mm deep socket. Ground flat spots on the edges near the top to get a wrench on it, and stuck a small blade screwdriver down the middle. Worked perfectly

The Motion Pro tool is not deep enough so don't even bother

I bought mine from a Honda dealer few years ago.
This is what you want: 07GMA-ML70120
Bike Bandit and Amazon has it, but not cheap.
About $35 shipped

Thanks
 

Thanks for the replies, i really like the bike. Probably just go ahead and get the tool.
👍

Any chance of a photo before I buy the OEM tool. I have been "35 dollared" to death lately. Think the last go around was $180 or so. Not complaining as specialty tools are really nice to have, but a grinder and deep socket mod looks appealing as it is zero dollar lol!

Done
 

Gronk, i took the advice and just done the job with the ground down 10mm socket
wasn't bad.it would worked better if i would have done a better job grinding.lol.
but extremely doable.

Here ya go:

Hi
Can anyone tell me whether the 88 CBR600F would use the same 10 mm tappet tool discussed above.
The manual says tool part # 07GMA-ML7-0100 for a CBR600F. ( not ..#.. -0120 as referred to above for a CBR100F) .
Perhaps its an 8 mm for cbr600F?
Thanks

I see the same part number for the tappet nuts on both bikes so should be 10mm
