Just curious to why Kawi suggests valve inspection/adjustments at intervals half that of the other major Japanese manufacturers?
For my '00 ZX-6R the service manual states inspection/adjustment every 12,000km while the 600cc counterparts from Suzuki/Honda/Yamaha get 24,000km between having their inspection/adjustment.
All of the bikes use a shim under bucket system, and I would assume the top end of each to be relatively similar, so why the difference? Is Kawi overly cautious?
Opinions/answers?
