Title: Anyone need a 2.50 mm shim? Need a 2.40 mm shim
Post by: haristocrat on June 05, 2025, 08:28:53 PM

Just did my first valve inspection on a 1987 K75S I picked up last year that had been sitting for a while, and is now running again. All valves are in spec except exhaust #1 which is 0.10 mm tight.

I need a 2.40 mm shim to replace the 2.50 stock to get it back into spec.
Does anyone have one they might be willing to swap?

If not I might just cave and buy one so recs on where to get one without ridiculous shipping costs for a 1 oz item (i.e. shipping should cost a first class postage stamp) would be great.
thanks!

Here's one place to get them (https://newmotorcycleparts.net/motor_parts/valve_shims.html). Email them to query shipping costs.
