jbw 0 Posted September 3, 2009 The valves on my DRZ are a bit loose and I think should be adjusted into spec. I would like to set them just loose of the middle of spec... I thought I could do the shim exchange at Alba Action Sports but apparently they have just closed down. Does anybody know where shims can be purchased locally? preferably near the Santee area. I guess I will try calling more shops to see if any have a good selection. Thanks, Josh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dirt dame 559 Posted September 3, 2009 If you want to buy a kit, Hot Cams makes a full range kit that costs around 80-85 bucks. Some local shops will carry them or Rocky Mountain ATV/MC online carries them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, Josh I bought a huge hot cams kit from Fun Bike center, fits most of my toys, they will know your diameter, surprisingly they had the best price, in stock and free air conditioning. A kit is great and saves time going back and forth to the dealer to buy the shim you should have bought on the previous trip. .02 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
