Re: Valve clearances
Hi Frank,
I never done valve clearances on the inline four. I have a manual of my CB400 1997-98 with pictures and numbers. Descriptions all in Japanese. The clearances in my manual:
In: 0.15 +/-0.03 mm
Out: 0.22 +/- 0.03 mm
I'm missing the method to adjust the rockers in case the clearances are out of spec.
Cheers, Mansie

Re: Valve clearances
I'm struggling to find the definitive answer to valve clearance settings for my 1993 400 Super Four. I have seen figures between 0.08mm for both inlet and exhaust to 0.15mm inlet and 0.22 exhaust set when cold. Can anyone please confirm if either of these is correct or provide the true figure(s) if they're not ? Thanks.
