Ok, I have searched. I am not trying to kill bandwidth here. there are so many hits for this subject I cannot find my answer. I have also looked through the honda shop manual. maybe its my PDF file, but I can't find the answer I am looking for. is it cam chain tensioner, valves, timing, and carb sync? I am about to do this again and make sure I did it in the right order the first time so this time will be right as well. hope someone can answer quick. thanks!

Just wrote this in another post, so "copy"  "paste"  and here ya go:


First adjust your valve clearances (engine ice cold), then timing chain tension, check your spark plug conditions and gaps, bench sync the carbs, set the air mixture screws to default per the manual, now set your points gaps and ignition timing, then run the bike till you reach a good operating temp (like 20 mins or so), finally synch the carbs with the engine warm (pop a fan in front to keep from overheating).


Good luck.  Enjoy.
