[QUOTE="Bill, post: 946926, member: 10188"] When I checked mine, I used the method that Torch recommended and the method outlined in the Yamaha Service Manual. Measuring the valves when the cam lobes were pointed straight up resulted in 7 valves measuring .001" tighter than measuring when the cam lobes were pointed outward as called for in the Service Manual. Don't know why this occurs but I'd previously read about this happening in a posting on www.fjriders.com [/QUOTE]
