You're exactly correct! New wheels and shitty steel, so why is it so hard to believe there are new springs attached to the rockers?Originally Posted by Kickaha

Because there is no reason to add additional complexity to a simple design
"If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."
Low personal B.M.E.P.
As amusing as this thread has been, if the clearance is specified at the valve, measure it at the damm valve...I'm aware that some Hondas specify clearance at the cam end of the rocker, good on them, Honda always were awkward..
The problem with measuring at the wrong end is the rocker ratio...If the ratio is say 1.5:1, .004in measured at the cam end is .006in at the valve...
Which will probably still run OK but just a tad noisy...
Conversely, If it's specified .004in at the cam - but set at the valve end...It will be too tight at the cam and probably fail quite quickly...
Generally, if it's not specified, but there are caps over the valve for adjustment, use the bloody things...

I don't really give a fuck.

You say that like he didn't already know it

So what, are you calling me a liar? I wouldn't assert that it's an OEM thing, maybe it's some kind of weird aftermarket modification? In any case, *someone* (some idiot, for all i know) thought it was a good idea to stick some springs in there.

Yeah, it seems some of the folks in this thread are really thick, so i'm just taking everything at face value.

It might be Suzuki's new GN125 prototype.

Refer original post. Is a GN125 capable of pulling past 4k revs when new?
I have evolved as a KB member.Now nothing I say should be taken seriously.

What do you mean a losing battle? I saw what I saw, and no fucker is going to talk me out of it. I've been up-front about that, mere words are not going to convince me I was hallucinating.

I don't really know what that means, but this bike isn't new. It's a 2012 bike that has seemingly been mistreated. I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with the cylinder, no one said anything about a new bike.

My one isn't new but pulls past 11k, not sure what to as the rev counter stops at 11,000

That's nice, i guess? My one obviously has a problem. Also, it does rev past 4k, but it will sometimes refused to rev higher than 4k *when under load in 4th or 5th gear*
