There is a how-to on this site and the maintenance manual explains how to do it as well. However, unless you have a shim kit it would be best to have a trusted shop do the valve check and adjustment if necessary. I did everything but the actual adjustment since I dont have the kit myself. I trailered my bike to my buddy who runs a local shop and he did the valve check but I didn't need anything so I just buttoned her back up.is valve adjustment something you can do yourself or is that a shop only job?
