Hi, been reassembling and adjusting the valve lifter mechanism that is attached to the tappet cover door. With exhaust rocker cover off and by moving the engine end lever by hand I can see it actually works and does 'lift' the valve quite a bit but when connected to the cable and trying to operate by using the mechanism provided on the handle bar a very different story and really just doesn't work as insufficient leverage provided by the mechanism.
Is there a fix for this, maybe retrofitting an old fashioned valve lifter lever? Shame as it does work at the engine end with a bit of pressure but that little plastic thing on the handle bars is not man enough to compress the valve spring!
