i’m past due for a valve clearance, almost at 22k miles. put it off because i didn’t want to pay someone else to do it, and was too scared to try it myself.

my question is how difficult is it? for someone who has only done basic maintenance (oil changes, tires, brakes, chain/sprockets, etc)

it runs like a dream, and from what i’ve gathered researching there’s a good chance they are all in spec anyway. i’ve mostly commuted on it but have some high spirited rides, top speed runs and such. it’s never been tracked.

the second pic was 2 or so years ago i want it back to that length im just stubborn when it comes to haircuts lol
