Default Valve Adjustment

Fellas,
How often is valve adjustment recommended for the Grizz 660? How long should it typically take?

Thanks,
Lvl1Trauma

I like to check them about every third or fourth oil change (I change my oil about once a month). It takes about 30 to 45 mins from start to finish. Most of your time is spent removing and replacing plastic.

Roger that. Thanks for the info. I am about to indulge in a camo 660. It is down to it and the AC650. The Grizz winds hands down in the clutch/trans. department. It is going to be a little cheaper as well. I also like the overall setup. I would get a Bomb. 650 but they don't make an IRS that big. I want something bigger than the 400 they offer- it is a fine machine for a flatlander, though.

Thanks again,
Lvl1Trauma

I would recommend the grizz. I have no faith in Arctic Crap after rebuilding about six of them from the ground up. I feel like they are buying a cheaply designed motor (from suzuki) and placing it in a poorly designed frame. My only complaint towards bombardier is the expense of their parts. I don't know if its just this area or what but bomb parts are expensive as hell here.
