    valve clearance for 16 valve air cooled

    Hey, ive got a gsx750E (Australian) built in 1982. Its got the 16 valve air cooled engine and i need to find the valve clearances for it. Could someone out there help me or let me know where i can find a service manual for it. Cant find one any where, ive got a manual for the air / oil cooled engine but i cant be sure the valve lash remained the same..... HELP....

    For my 82 750t, i believe they are .003-.006 inches cold. I am at work now so cant check the manual, im sure a search on valve adjustment will torn up good results.

    This is a non-shim type valve train.

        Help!

        I have 1983 GS 750E fun bike 58131km, still hauls ass n runs smooth. 4 n 1 yoshamira header sounds great. my head gasket is leakin and orings in the cover leak. valves haven't been checked on this bike in at least 5 years i didn't get a manual with it. i'm gonna replace the orings n maybe the gasket, i can't find out how tight to torque the head down, and what my valve clearance should be. Also couldn't figure out how to ask a question in here so much advice would be appreciated. other then a feeler gauge and torque wrench will i need any other special tools ? thx!


        60mph 2nd gear 8000rpm gotta love it!!!

            I've got a factory manual for my 80 750L, It covers some of the later years, so I will have to check for sure when I get home next week.
