valve clearences?

[snailofsatan]

hello! excuse my english! but you seem to know and like TW125s here!!

i have a technical question which hopefully you will know the answer...

my brother is fixing my 2003 tw1215 and has the following questions to complete it:

Do you know the valve clearances in mm or 100ths of an inch? (or anything)

and is there one setting for inlet valve and one for exhaust?
(or are they the same clearance?)

and how tight to tighten the headbolts (torque setting)?

thanks in advance for you help :)
any help is much appreciated!!!!!

kev.

I had to adjust the exhaust and admission valves clearance several times but I didn't care much about the torque. I'd say "not too much" or "moderate" is enough.

And you can use middle strong screw glue.

Indeed ... And it's quite easy to check the headbolts tightening by removing the cover.
