Questioni need the valve clearnace size for a Honda CBX1000 6 cylinder
Thanks
AnswerI always set mine a little roomy; the inlets at 0.08.
Official specs are:
Valve Clearance Cold - Inlet : 0.06-0.13
Valve Clearance Cold - Exhaust : 0.06-0.13
A site where a lot of the specs are displayed:

If you've rebuilt the engine, make sure you rotated the ccrank between putting the two sides of the cams in. if #1 is on compression (lobes away from the plug) then #6 is on the rock (lobes both facing the plug) and vice versa. Early manuals had an error, resulting in some people building essentially a big triple, which breaks the camchain after around 20 miles...
Good luck, Jan
