So I'm on the last stretch of my winter maintenance and had a few thoughts/questions.
1. I have my exhaust off and a spare oil pan gasket, I think I wanna make sure the o-ring is in place. Any tips for this job? I was gonna give the oil a few hours to drain (can't run the bike), take off the pan, inspect o ring, then asuming all is good, get one of those soft drill attachments to clean old gasket and then fit the new one. Do I need to put any other sealant on the gasket to hold it and such?
2. Anyone think ill have to retune the carbs slightly since I found 9/16 valves .001-.0015 too tight?
3. The damn timing plug strippd out on me, are there any allen head swaps for these?
