[QUOTE="Chandlerh93, post: 193550, member: 2683"] I just recently finished putting back together a buddies bike that had been sitting in the garage in pieces for a while. The motor is fine, I cleaned the carb, air filter, oil change, coolant, the works. It starts on the very first kick damn near every time but I think the valves need to be done. The idle is fairly inconsistent, as well as the ride when you first start going through the gears (kinda jerky) . Not to mention it pops in little. I'm pretty familiar with the inner workings on the bike and id rather not get it into a shop. Could it be as simple as just changing the shim sizes under the buckets to a slightly bigger size? I have the tools needed (torque wrench, feeler gauges) and I know I could replace those shims no problem. I just wouldn't know what size to put in there. -Chandler [/QUOTE]
