Mistake In Repair Manual
« on: November 01, 2010, 08:21:42 AM »
This is probably old news, but has anyone else notice that the valve clearance specs are wrong?  .02 inches is way way wrong.  Robb

sorry.....its for the top manual....the cb750  If you adjust the intake valve clearance to .020 like it says it probably wouldn't even run.  It is supposed to be .002  Robb
