6ooo mile valve inspection

[spyder13]

Hey Lamonster have you checked your valves? Do you agree with the Inspect every 6000 miles?

[Lamonster]

I have yet to check the valves but I will be doing it pretty soon now that I have over 10K on it. I'll do a post on it when I do. :bigthumbsup:

According to page 73 in the manual:

Valve check/adjustment:

6,000 First time.

Then every 12,000 miles OR 2 years - whichever is first.

It's NOT every 6,000.

Hey Lamonster...... coming from background in just small briggs motors, honda cars and the occasional diesel 6.0L Ford and 5.9L Cummins....

Is the valve adjustment / check procedure on the Rotax fairly simple for someone with a little mechanical knowledge?

Looks like it's going to be like my 109, shim under bucket. I think the valkyrie was the easiest motor to adjust the valves on. This is going to take a little more work. ::)
