    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Do you have a copy of my valve adjust spreadsheet?

Steve you have my feedback via email. I have completed the valve adjust. it took me two goes as I figured out with your help the shims I would need. When I did the replacements and re-measured there were still a couple out of spec. i.e. Theory vs practice. Have now changed those couple. Have given you update on a couple of probs with the spreadsheet. Could have been my inexperience with excel. The new updated version you gave me works well. Thanks again.

P.S. Bike is running well. Have a 500+ mile club run in a week. will let you know how bike ran on trip.

Cheers

Don
 
would be great if you could email me a copy of the spreadsheet,thanks.
Email address in profile.
 
Steve,

Not sure if I got the original spreadsheet or one of the updated ones, but when I did my valves I didn't notice any issues with the sheet. Now my valves on the other hand, had some big issues with cylinder #3. Intake needed to be dropped 0.20mm while the exhaust needed to be dropped 0.35mm. I had to keep dropping one shim size till the .038mm feeler gage, the smallest I have, would fit between the cam and shim.

Thank you for all your hard work on this spreadsheet, I hope that it will really make a difference with the next and subsequent valve jobs.
 
Thanks for a copy of the spreadsheet, Steve. This thread will come in handy when I find the time to break the bike down. Hoping soon. Having back problems.
 
I'd really appreciate a copy of the sheet, too, if possible, Steve. I really should go through the valves this winter - said that last winter, too :oops:

Thanks - logan@pt.lu
 
Thanks Steve, a copy of your spreadsheet will be appreciated. When I do my valves, using BassCliff's howto, your spreadsheet should be of great assistance. Email in profile
 
Thanks for all the interest in the spreadsheet, but PLEASE...click on my name and send me an e-mail with your request.

These last three: headphase, Pete Logan and Matchless at least gave me their address or mentioned it's in their profile, but not everybody has their e-mail in their profile. Also, my e-mail gets checked more often than this forum, so you are likely to get a quicker response. 8-[

It's also easier to just reply to an e-mail than generate one, but that's just pure laziness on my part. :oops:

Wow, just checked my list of 'registered' users ... 41 of you have requested a copy. \\:D/

Keep the requests coming, but remember ... e-mail, not PM.

Nothing special about the 'registration', it just lets me know who to send the upgrades to when they are ready. 8-[

Thanks Steve, looks good, will make use of it soon.
Thanks for sharing.
