Has anyone done a video on an R18 valve check/adjustment yet?

What is the definition of insanity?

It's doing the same thing over and over but expecting different results. Probably applies to posting on forums as well!

You’re tiring and not water
We got it, we know, it’s not going to change anything as explained more than once by continuing your dripping.
As mentioned before, helping others is a good thing and this isn’t that.

I don't have a video of it, but I adjusted the valves on mine and it was really simple. Need four feeler gauges, an Allen key to move the adjuster, and a wrench to open the adjustment nut. Torque wrench in inch lbs to lock them back again. Was really impressed by the build quality of the bike.

FYI, I used the R18 stand from Hornig to get the wheel off the ground to find TDC. I plan on keeping the bike for a long time so it will pencil out after a couple of services.

With how high you rev the bike generally (2-3K), I'm thinking this tank will go 200K no problem. We'll see!

So the adjustments are like the old Oil-heads with 4 feeler gauges and the same tools.. That brings back some memories..
