because then you have to jack the engine up to get them back in which is always a pain. also those inside top bolts are annoying to get to with the wrench. also it doesn't really get in the way if the coils and emissions crap are gone (my coils are gone)

with the way my bike is right now it takes me all of 15 minutes to do a valve check. 30-45 if it includes changed shims...

i think it took me about 30 minutes to do my last valve check because me and kevin were dicking around in the garage.

like i said though, just the way i do it
