Hello all. I figured it was about time to introduce myself via the proper channels, I am Adam, and I ride a
beater 2003 that has a rattle-can green paintjob that would make any respectable auto-body specialist want to stab me in the aorta (Wrenching is my thing. I could give a sh*t less what it looks like), but it purrs like a kitten
. I was lead here by a google search for "ex250 valve clearances" and found a whole wealth of info that has been handy, since the PO did so little maintenance that it seemed he made an effort not to. I've found the forums to be chock-full of helpful people with a good sense of humor, unlike most sites where everyone seems to be there to make fun of everyone (Even though sometimes it
really is necessary). I've been riding for about 5 years and the 'jette is my third bike, and probably my favorite. I look forward to learning what I can and sharing what I know, and thank you all for taking part in something so great!
