Glad all worked out fine, a good storeperson you have workin for ya.

 

yeah.. thanks guys...so happy.. and yes mrs got wined and dined tonight for
a job well done... thier good at that sort of stuff..shopping and a little girl flirt power .....


hey guys need to ask a question and don't want to start a new thread - i need to get into the area where i can reach the valve clearances, the ticking noise is getting louder and i believe affecting no 3 cyl performance, can i just unbolt the top 8 bolts and pop the cover and access the valve adjusters while engine still on bike?

 

Yes, no problem

 

Yep, valve adjustments are real easy on these. It's like working on a civic or toyota.... but slightly smaller. lol..

Regular adjustable tappets is another thing to make sure we tell Honda to put on the new 1000F. None of that shim and bucket bullchit.

 

was reading through manual and it said i would need a special 3mm hexagonal
socket..not sure what it means? its inferring to modify a standard socket? but how? is that to get the crankshaft hole cap out?

 

Probably refering to a hex key on a socket shell/adapter.

There's a "how to on the tappet adjustments" - very well done with pics as I recall. Check the how to section - has pics of the special spanner everyone here seems to use.......

 

Cool... I think this is it if anyone else needs it..
