    Valve adjustment spreadsheet is READY !!

    I have been toying with this half-heartedly since the last valve adjustment, and last night, after checking the valves, I finished polishing up the program. \\/

    It is an Excel spreadsheet that helps you with the math on the valve adjustments to help determine the correct shim size. It also helps you keep track of what shims are in there from one adjustment to the next and tracks other service done to the bike.

    If you are interested in a copy, send me an e-mail with your request. Please put GSR somewhere in the subject line.

    OK, I have sent out about a dozen copies already. Has anyone had a chance to use it yet?

    Just wondering if there is something that I missed. 8-[

      I've put together a few Excel programs for my restaurant to track glassware, silver and china. Lots of trial and error but they all work. I'd love to try yours but I don't use shims.

          It's a private club. We only let old, drunk, gripey and snobby people in. I don't think you fit the criteria. :-D

            Your sig says you have an '80 1100L with lots of goodies, and you don't use shims???

            What, pray tell, do you use?


            I'll toss you a copy anyway. 8-[
