subject: 500 mile service, valves not adjusted
Posted: Thu Aug 23, 2001 8:21 pm
I bought my 2000 with 340 miles. Talked with two different Kawi mechanics
and both said to wait until 2500 miles.
When I did the valves at 3K I had one slightly tight exhaust valve, the rest
just in range. Reshimmed 'em all and will check at 7.5K maybe even 10K.
What's a good second valve check mileage?

I took my 2001 KLR-650 in for the 500 mile check out, and the dealer
told me they don't adjust valves until at least the 2000 mile mark.
Your comments please!
