GN125H valve clearance troubles (No clearance?)

[h0dgep0dge]

It will not be a return spring for the rocker, just sideways location.

Do you think I give the remotest semblance of a shit what it's there for? The point is there was shit in there that I didn't expect, and it made the engine behave in a way I didn't expect (i.e making the rocker harder to move to feel the clearance), and that's why I made the thread. At least someone is finally actually believing me that something is in there.

There's a helava lot of rockers with springs between them exactly like that. Never seen one that loads the rocker against the valve stem though, nor have I adjusted any clearances where the spring made any difference in how the gauge felt or how the job's done.

Having said that, I've never adjusted valves on a GN125.

That's on the wrong side to load the arm on the valve stem. That's keeping the rocker loaded on the push rod.

Who wants to ride an air cooled Ducati heap of shit? Oh...sorry.

Fuck you
I would if it was Bevel

Did it look something like this?

What a fucking conincidence it's exactly the same as the one I put it

Pretty Sure Kickaha would have one longer and considerably more boring.

At least my Bucket goes

Only on lawn mowers.

And Honda Dreams.

Yes, true, but that spring can go on either way around. The article that included that picture originally mentions the fact that the spring goes on both ways, and is left off on some models.

W.t.f, I could have done an entire top end overhaul on a GN125 in the time it took to read this load of shit.

Slowcoach, I would have been able to rebuild the entire motor

I completely agree, entirely too long. As far as I'm concerned, no one needed to say anything after the second post, yet here we are.

While that might be true it wouldn't be an ugly peanut tanked tassled sissy barred GN. I think I deserved a fuck you i'm pretty disappointed I didn't get one, Drew hasn't even called me a cunt for a month either.

You would have bloody needed too rebuild it.

I could have earned enough monies to pay someone to do it for me and had beers money left over.
Still with that in mind I would have done a compression test by now and rechecked the apparently cleaned carbs looking for more revs in top 2 gears.
Or

I would buy a better bike with that said earned cash.

Heresy

There is no better bike
