I'm due for my 100 mile vavle adjustment. I found the valve setting online. Intake .05-.10 mm and exhaust .22-.27mm. I assume I'll have to remove the fuel tank to get at the valve? Can anyone save me some time with basic instructions?

 

i never got mine adjusted but i probley will at aobut 1500 miles just my opinion

 

Anyone??

 

Really nothing to it. Remove the obvious stuff out of the way (seat, side panel, gas tank, engine mounting bracket). Make sure you are on the compression stroke so you don't do like I did and adjust it way out of whack to begin with. Line up the marks and get to adjusting. For me it was easier to remove the footwell and the cover to the pull starter and line up the mark by spinning by hand then to line it up with the rope itself. Of course a friend of mine showed me on his how he can hit top dead center by feel on the rope. I didn't believe him until he did it and then I checked the marks. I'll never be that good....
