    ok take a look at the pictures of your bike and look at the axles. front you have to unbolt the calipers. 2 bolts per caliper. then there's a nut on the axle, unbolt it and loosen the pinch bolts on the forks (2 on each side), pull axle out. rear of your bike is so easy its stupid, unscrew nut (there might be a clip on there too but I'm not familiar with your bike), pull wheel off.

    Hawk valves are a piece of cake! Try desmoquattro than anything else will be easy

    IIRC intake .10mm, exhaust .15mm. just did mine last week, one hope I would remember...

    I'm pretty sure what we did was intake .006 exhaust .008
    Not sure if Degsy remembers but I'm semi locked on these numbers

    And Savas, we will do the valves on the 749 next. Then you'll find out what a valve adjustment is.

    Do you still need frame sliders? I do too. I was thinking about ordering some delrin from this place and could get enough for two sets.

    What I qouted Degs via text are stock numbers. Your bike with the 153x1 cam is closer to what you did. .05 intake and .07 exhaust.

    But all I did was look it up on www.hawkgtfourm.com

    Doc. .006 and .008 are just the US equivalent to the metric numbers you gave me.

    So we should be at .05 and .07 mm? Damn. That's tight. Ill have to check that.
