  • Valve adjusting

    I just can't seem to find a source for the valve adjusting
    tool for my 1994 750.

    Anyone find one at a good price?

    I think you can order them from a Suzuki shop.

    motorcycleanchor.com is your first and best source for all of the information you’re looking for. From general topics to more of what you would expect to find here, motorcycleanchor.com has it all. We hope you find what you are searching for!



    However, I just went out and bought the smallest Crescent wrench I could find. That worked well for me.

        Thanks for the Crescent wrench tip, I may have a tiny one in the drawer.
        I was kind of hoping for a discount tool outlet and not a high priced dealer.

          Get some square headed screws and find one that fits the stem. Screw it into a handle and bam, 20 cent tool.

            Oh do I like that! Thanks

            I haven't had the valve cover off yet so I didn't realize it's a square
            head screw.

              You can use a socket made for square heads also, usually a 1/4" drive works well with a small extention.

                Does anyone know the size of the square head,
                I may have a small 8pt socket in the drawer!

                    I believe it's smaller than 4mm. (well, a 6-point 4mm socket is too big anyway...)

                      That kills any chance of me having one then if its smaller than 4mm.

                            Its really no biggie. They have self adjusters in them rather then shims. At least the pre 750s do. The hardest part is pulling everything to get to them. If you cant find a thread on it them PM me and Ill send you a step by step.
