I recently got the valve kit and adjusted my valves.  I was able to change the one shim that needed changed under the cam at the fuel valves(the other was at .05 clearance already).  When I went to check the exhaust valves, one was fine and one was too tight.  I needed a 2.50 or 2.55 to put the clearance in the correct range, but all of the shims in the kit were in the 2.65 to 2.80 range. 

I know I can order the shims I need online from a few different places, but it usually takes a while for shipping.  Someone else wants the valve kit already so, I was hoping I could buy a couple of shims from someone here.  That way shipping is faster and I can get the next guy in line the kit asap.  If not, no big deal, the bike is running way better already, I would just like to get all the valves adjusted while I have the tools I need. 

Thanks,

If you have a local Suzuki dealer they could order it for you.  I had to do the same recently and it only took a day or so.  Cost was $10

You can get a used shim from a shop if you have a good shop ... and take the shims and match them, yamaha shims are only about .5mm smaller dia, and as such will swap in, but you dont want to fit a yamaha shim in there, grfeatly increases the chance it will fly out.
BTW I can fiddle through my rather anaemic collection ... I ony got 4 I yanked out of this seized up motor ... You saw that one too cal ...

i *might* have one 2.50 shim left... i have a bunch of sizes from 2.35 to 2.80 but i think i used the last 2.50 i had on my adjustment.

I'll check when I get home tonight from work.

Sweet canuk, I appreciate it, let me know how much you want for it.

Buddah, I'd say the ones out of that seized are 2.65 also.  2.65 seems to be the factory size.

BTW, I will be in NC this Saturday if you have everything ready and have time.  If not I will be back there the Sunday a week and a day after this Saturday also.  I am gonna go ahead and send you  some more $$ through paypal so, I won't need to bring as much cash with me.  I will go ahead and do that tonight so, let me know if you get it. 

Thanks guys,
Wayne

Sorry, I checked and I thought I had a spare 2.50 but I used it when I did my valve check this past weekend.

Its a little loose and im trying to track down a 2.55, so if I find one i'll let you know when the 2.50 comes out.
