I'm spending this week in the garage having a servicing fest[1], so
'catch-up' is the order of the day wrt UKRM.

[1] Good job too, having seen the state of the MV's rear hub
bearing[2]. I suspect things may have turned 'interesting' on a future
ride. The good news is all the valve clearances are fine - yippee.

It's a good job you spotted that in time to prevent a serious
accident. I wouldn't want to ride far on a Slovakian bearing.

What's involved in adjusting the valve clearances on your MV? Is it a
cylinder head off job, as I understand some were?

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Andy Bonwick <nospam@bonwick.me.uk>
saying something like:

Not just that. Tiny balls spinning fast - not good. Probably better in a
decent-quality bearing though.

Krust old chap, wonder why so very few people advertise trials bikes on
your super off road web site?
