Today I completed the 7,500 mile valve check and adjustment - exhaust valves on cylinder 1 were both too tight, adjusted to 0.05mm thinner HotCams shims to bring them back in the middle of the range which is where the others are.
First time inside a motorbike engine - a little scary but the engine still starts and no nasty noises so I think I got away with it...
FI light has come on though so I may need to retrace my steps and see if I forgot to reconnect a connector. Any of you (mostly carb I guess) folks have any hunches on that? I'm wondering if it's just my battery was off its charger for a couple of days and the low voltage triggered the FI. It was showing up low when I reconnected the charger tonight.
Otherwise I assume there's a way to read some sort of code to give me a clue so I'll have a search...
Cheers, Pete
