Drag on rocker VS feeler guage

[chipripper]

You guys are correct. All but one of my half rings were broken. So I ordered new EMS shims and rings. I'm not going to MBP collets due to cost, but maybe on the next interval. The new half rings are the reason I want to get to .000. I figure after the rings bed in I will be around .001-2. my exhaust closers were at .004 and .007, so it was running a little poorly on warm-up. I read somewhere on here that Stu is fitting 8mm valves to a DS. That's going on my list of things to maybe do someday when the guides need replacing.

I really appreciate everyone's input. My bike and I are much better off thx to the DMF
