Hey guys,
I got my Porche valve adjustment tool today. It was a good thing I bought two because I had to bend the gauge on one 90 degrees to get into 2 or 3 of the valves. The valves were pretty loose, like maybe .020" or more of clearance. I don't know if that was from the last guy not knowing where to set the valves, but I am hoping it is not a sign of bearing wear. I plan to go riding this weekend then check the clearance after the ride to see if it moves.
Unfortunately, I think I bought a bike with some problems. But if I make it right, I will someday go to Husaberg-Heaven.
