god i hate doing a valve job, make me puke. [image]
its not the actually valves that are a PIA
its getting to 'em [image]
takes me 3 maybe 4 times as long to
get all the tuperware off, &
i have to take my battery out & the floorboard
so i can get to the exhaust one.
& then its still tough to get my feelers gauge down there
& also i cant see, im so blind. [image]

so, get 'em set
get started, tap,tap,tap,tap,tap,tap,tap
DANG THINGS [image]

I hate it too. I swear I am going to weld up a bracket that bolts on to hold the seat up similar to a ruckus next time I have to take the plastic off mine./ To do the exhaust valve I find I can lay the scooter on its left side for better access. That plastic just plain sucks. The cure would be a decent head with inserts or made of a decent metal like a real honda uses. You never have to adjust valves there.
