hahaha i was going to say.... but damn, valve adjustment AND a custom tune - that's really not too bad considering how much of a PITA it is to adjust the valves... valve check or valve adjustment?


if i could get my valves ADJUSTED and a custom tune - plus spark plugs, oil change, brake fluid changed - hell, i might save up and pay that. that is a good deal - so long as it's a valve adjustment

ya, that's what most businesses use. 3x cost. you have to make yours too, you know what i'm saying? the repsol has NEVER seen a mechanic (despite complete rebuild), and the only time my fighter went to the shop was to get a new tire before i had a bead breaker.

I dont know about you guys, but the worst part of doing a valve job on my bike was putting the damn throtte cable back on.
