I believe they are just tappets so most of the time is just getting to them? Should be an easy adj?
Valve Adjustment
Has anyone here had the valve adjustment or done one? I questioned the Yam dealer here and they said that they had never done an adjstment on the Stryker. The 1300 engine yes but not on a Stryker. This may not be a big deal but I cringe everytime I have to take any vehicle in for service. That is why I do most of my own work. We've all been ripped-off before but it's not the money that concerns me...it's the quality of the work. BTW, The estimate was 3 hours at $75/hr.

Checking the valves is allways a good idea, if you can do it yourself! Just for piece of mind. It's really hard to fork over that kinda money for a basic service, look into the manuals its really not that hard?
