Well, it was time for the Husky’s 3k service, and I had already done everything but the valves. So Saturday, I thought I’d take the afternoon and get ‘em in spec. The bike is kind of a pain in the ass to do a valve adjustment on as you have to do a ridiculous amount of disassembling to get to the four little bastards – especially for having to be done every 3K miles. So, about five hours later, the valves are adjusted, and now the damn thing doesn’t want to start! Turns out there are special angled gauges I needed and didn’t have, so now it seems I’ve adjusted them too tight and the bike is out of commission until I can get this mess sorted. What the fuck…
To get to the valves, I had to drain the tank, remove it, drain the coolant, remove the radiators/fan, and unplug and move a ton of electrical shit…
All to get here for ten minutes…
