    Good catch on the R/R - glad to hear that you are up an running. Kudos on adjusting the valves - always important to check this box off when reviewing VF500F maintenance checklist.

    R/R - I am ordering one to add to my spares collection ...

    Valve lash - Oh yeah, any high-reving Honda motor of mine gets this done regularily, I do it myself on the Cars, but the top-end of the V4 is a PITA to work on ... Just changing the spark plugs caused a torrent of four-letter words, and required beers to maintain sanity. Somrthing tells me my specialty tool collection is going to need a new tool-box just for the Inteceptor / V4 specific tools.
