[QUOTE="staledonut, post: 866670, member: 668"] It's definitely tight in the FJR to perform valve clearance work but certainly doable without pulling the motor and made more so by experiences shared by others. I've decided to adjust those valves at the bottom of the spec. I got a good start last night and loosened the CCT cap nut (those slender Gear wrenches rock!)and called it a night as I had conference calls to attend (%#&! globalization!). May take week or more get it all done but meanwhile can keep the two wheel itch in check with my KLR. I have no intention of skipping an entire 26.6kMi clearance check interval but may stretch it 5-10K after this round. [/QUOTE]
