Sorry if this has been asked a gazillion times.
Can anyone email with valve adjust intervals on the KLR650 and what is the
adjust method ( adjuster screw, shim, etc. )???
I am interested in getting an used KLR to complement my Ninja 500. I do
most of my own maintenance, just want to see what I might be adding to my
workload.
Any other maintenance tips??
Thanks in advance all,

Be careful using Simple green around large pieces of aluminum
(Airplanes).
It's somewhat corrosive.
From the Simple Green Website: "Aluminum is a soft metal that easily
corrodes with unprotected exposure to water. The aqueous-base and
alkalinity of Simple Green or Crystal Simple Green can accelerate
the corrosion process."
Just be sure to wash it off shortly after applying it, oh and stay
away from those greasy bearings too...
