..in my best Maxwell Smart voice... Just wanted to say the information gleaned from COG is well worth the price of admission! I started my first valve adjustment last night. Pulled the tipover bars, tupperware (screws in the cardboard), seat, tank, coils, etc. Moved the coolant hose clamp. Got the valve cover out with minimal problems. Cleaned the old sealant off the head, gasket and cover, and RTV'ed the gasket back onto the cover. In short, everything I've picked up from COG worked well in getting things apart! THEN (the missed part) I can't find my feeler gauges. DOH! I'll be buying a new set today. While it's apart, I may add a NAPA fuel filter and change the fuel line. Not ready to sync the carbs as I haven't built my balancer yet. Saturday is looking free to finish her up! Rode the wife's scooter to work....dang I miss my Connie already! ..dz.. 2003 Concours 1983 Honda Silverwing 2008 Yamaha Majesty (new) 2003 Honda XR70 (son's)
