Just wanted to say a big thanks to Lee who helped this poor, confused idiot from breaking his bike.

After reading about three different versions on how to check valve clearances, I asked Lee for a bit of help. Top bloke that he is, he kindly sent me an idiots guide!

Cheers Lee!

If I break it, expect a carrier bag or two in the post!!!!!

Thanks again

Ped

Cheers Guys

Shimming isn't rocket science but there is a little black magic involved :twisted:

If you pop by this week Nattyboy I've got an 888 on the bench with 36k miles!

Cheers.

Lee.
