Thank you. Next, I'll open the cover and check the reducer. Can you tell me the valve clearance data?
Yes, go to "Resources" at the top of this page to find where to download the service manual.
I seem to remember that you're nearly at 20K so, if you feel confident in doing this yourself you should find this helpful....
I am curious as to how much it holds down those exhaust valves Measuring with and without would give us the answer if possible?
Now, when you measure the valve clearances you'll find three of the exhaust valves are waaaay off (much too large). You'll have to swing the decompressors around to get the actual clearance. Ask me how I know....
But....... I still don't know the answer to many questions I've asked previously that I thought might help us help you and, since I've repeated some of them a couple of time, I'm not going to restate them again here. You don't have to answer them.
If you had posted that your bike runs, but has trouble idling, doesn't sound right, kills when opening the throttle I don't think anyone here would have suggested that you first remove the tank, the exhaust, pull the plugs and perform a compression or leak down test. You've assumed a worst case scenario and I don't think I can convince you otherwise, so I think I'll just watch this from afar for a while.
Occam's razor (also spelled
Ockham's razor or
Ocham's razor;
Latin:
novacula Occami) is the
problem-solving principle that recommends searching for explanations constructed with the smallest possible set of elements. ...... Popularly, the principle is sometimes paraphrased as "of two competing theories, the simpler explanation of an entity is to be preferred."
