Valve clearances

[haveugot1 0]

I did them today and only had to adjust a couple as they were in spot on.But was concerned about the markings you had to line up, they looked like this,




The latter looks like it doesnt line up but according to the book its right



But all done and fine.

i think it could be a bit of backlash in the chain, when under load they prob line up better. in fact if i remember right mine was the same,

Well done on sorting your clearances Mark and you didn't even need my adjusting tool! That bike has certainly had some attention lately
