VALVE CLEARANCE INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
4. Check:
Valve clearance
Out of specification → Adjust.
Valve clearance (cold):
Intake valve:
0.08 ~ 0.12 mm
(0.0031 ~ 0.0047 in)
Exhaust valve:
0.10 ~ 0.14 mm
(0.0039 ~ 0.0055 in)
Checking steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
Align the T.D.C. mark a on the rotor with
the align mark b on the crankcase cover
when piston is at T.D.C. on compression
stroke.
Measure the valve clearance using a
feeler gauge 1.
Out of specification → Adjust clearance.
5. Adjust:
Valve clearance
Adjustment steps:
Loosen the locknut 1.
Turn the adjuster 3 in or out with the
valve adjusting tool 2 until specified clear-
ance is obtained.
Turning in →
Valve clearance is decreased.
Turning out →
Valve clearance is increased.
Tappet adjusting tool:

Hold the adjuster to prevent it from moving
and tighten the locknut.

ENGCYLINDER HEAD
REMOVAL POINTS
Cylinder head
1. Align:
“I” mark
(with stationary pointer)
Checking steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
Align the “I” mark a on the rotor with the
stationary pointer b on the crankcase
cover. When the “I” mark is aligned with
the stationary pointer, the piston is at the
Top Dead Center (T.D.C.).
NOTE:
In order to be sure that the piston is at Top
Dead Center, the match mark c on the
camshaft sprocket must align with the sta-
tionary pointer d on the cylinder head as
shown in the illustration.
2. Loosen:
Camshaft sprocket bolt 1
NOTE:
Remove the bolt while holding the rotor nut
with a wrench.
3. Remove:
Bolt (timing chain tensioner cap) 1
Bolt (timing chain tensioner) 2
Timing chain tensioner 3

Bolt (camshaft sprocket)
NOTE:
Temporarily tighten the bolt (camshaft sprocket)
at this point. Installation steps:
Turn the crankshaft counterclockwise with
a wrench.
Align the “I” mark a on the rotor with the
stationary pointer b on the crankcase
cover.
Align the match mark c on the camshaft
sprocket with the stationary pointer d on
the cylinder head.
Fit the timing chain 1 onto camshaft
sprocket 2 and install the camshaft
sprocket on the camshaft.
NOTE:
When installing the camshaft sprocket, keep
the timing chain as tense as possible on the
exhaust side.
CAUTION:
Do not turn the crankshaft during instal-
lation of the camshaft. Damage or
improper valve timing will result.
Remove the safety wire from the timing
chain.
