Shims are replaced, seeking advise before putting valve cover back
With help from Steve and very fast shipping from Z1 Enterprises I have replaced four shims and moved one. My clearance is .038mm on three valves with a 2.70 shim, that is within spec. Would it be wise to order three 2.65 to gain more clearance? Thanks for any advise.1978 GS 1000Tags: None

I'd go to the smaller shim to get more clearance. The valves tighten with mileage. It's safe to ride now though.Ed
To measure is to know.
