    Just wanted to stop in and say hello to everyone. Been awhile since I have been on the sight. Had a lot of fun with a lot of people from this family. Hopefully will get to see some old friends and meet some new faces this summer.

    Midnightventure,

    I called Ghetto Cycles and they quoted me $200 to adjust my valves. Said it was a two and a half hour job. Makes me wonder if they are doing it right. As Goose and the other shop I called have said it is an all day job. Just wanted to clear up your curiosity.

    Dale,

    I know it would be a ways for you to go but a shop in Tipton,Mo checked mine for around 180.00. They didn't have the shims but were prepared to get them after they checked. Turned out I had one just barely out on the loose side and since they generally tighten up and on the loose side isn't hard on the bike we decided just to put it back together. It wouldn't have cost much more if they had adjusted them since most of the work is getting to where you can access them. The shop is Ghetto Cycle Sales. They specialize in hopping up Hayabusas.

     

     

    Thanks, I will give these guys a call Tuesday. If I can get it done for a reasonable price its theirs........:happy34:

    BradT...................I love you man........:innocent:

    Will give me a good excuse to go see Snarley Bill!

    Would like to thank everyone for their response.

    Been getting a lot of noise coming from top of engine and a vibration in the bike so I decided to call the bike shop to price a valve adjustment, I almost dropped the phone when he said $550.

    Looks like I will be getting a repair book and trying it myself over the winter! Any recommendations on a repair manual? Never been into a bike that far but if i have any problems I know where to go to get the answers....:whistling:

     

    Thanks,
