Quick question:
Can one tell by the sound if the valves need to be adjusted? My (friend's) bike seems louder, but I haven't ridden it in awhile. It has 5900 miles on it.
Thanks!
P.S. I just ordered the Clymer manual today. :thumb:
Yes, but I'd have to hear it in person. And since you're in Ohio maybe someone around there can listen to it? Or, take it to a motorcycle mechanic.
Valves should be checked every 4000 miles.
Yes, I saw that the schedule says the valves should be checked every 4000 miles. :oops: I can barely get the owner to change his oil on time. :nono: Once my manual shows up I'll get in there to check.
