The caliper has to be tight....the brake pads ride on the rotor, which keeps the rotor clean. Not hard to work on or fix.

The R/R was a 6 wire and the same size as the original. Now I am back on the road. Thanks to everyone for the help.....

The engine is an air pump and it has to have a sealed cylinder to make compression, so the valves have to be properly adjusted. The fuel pump and carb require it.

The proper adjustment of the valves is .004 intake and .005 or .006 exhaust. This is not mm it is in inches. Use a flat feeler guage to set. I have 9100 miles on mine and I have adjusted the valves just one time. The adjustment of the valves is a big deal and it makes the engine run correctly. Enjoy....
