Title: More valve clearance comments.
Post by: dickingson on 04 December 2012, 09:06:12 pm

After reading many comments about checking valve clearances on Fzs1000(2005 model), i decided to check mine anyway at 24k. Spent the last couple of nights getting to them and every one is within tolerance like you would expect a new one to be like.
Its good to know they are ok though and saved me money.
I reckon anyone with a bit of common can check them.
Now to clean out front brake calipers.

Nice one, I'm thinking of checking mine but will wait till it gets to 32,000

Should check mine really. Bike has done 34K with no record of them being done. Did my old FZ750 2 years ago. Very time consuming.  :\
