Hello,
I just got my first Katana ('02 750). I've had other bikes, but haven't had to do much besides carb work. It has a little over 8,000 miles on it. It looks like it wasn't taken care of very well. I've been going over it and have noticed multiple problems like loose centerstand bolts, rusty & loose chain, etc. I am fixing everything I can now before I start riding it, so I know what I'm working with. I've been reading my service manual, and I believe it is time for a valve clearance check/adjustment. My question is how important is this, and is this a good time for that?
Thanks
