    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Need Some Shim Help.....Please...

Well, I finally am about done doing all the work on my 650G. I replaced front springs with Progressive, New Rear emgo shocks, total rebuild and dip on carbs, couple of cosmetic fun changes, i.e. handle bars, new signals. Last things I have to do are valve adjustment and seat cover. Seat cover is on order and when I measured my valves, low and behold ALL were tight. I couldn't even fit one gauge in between any of them.

So here is my question. Anybody have a THIN shim i can BORROW to get a measurement so I can place my shim order. All the shims I have in the motor are 2.6 to 2.75.....all of em, I took each one out to see, and used a caliper to verify. I really don't think that there was ever a valve adjustment done on the bike. It only has 11K on it and getting the valve cover off was a pain. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
