Has anyone adjusted the valves on their Commander yet? I figure people have had them enough time where they may be needing to adjust them or atleast check them.
Video in post above will help....it is really pretty basic on the Rotax...and the Teryx should follow suit I would think except for the lash clearances and minor differences between brands of twins .....LanceIs it a difficult process to check the lash or is it pretty straight forward?
When do they recommend checking and/or adjusting?
I checked 3 times on my Outlander and they were always within spec. Sometimes I think they just say to do it to get you in the stealership to take your money.As of last night, 3 other owners reported having done their valve adjustments and the valve lashs were A-OK.....however, let's not just assume our's are fine because of this trend tho........Lance
Amend to that brother!I checked 3 times on my Outlander and they were always within spec. Sometimes I think they just say to do it to get you in the stealership to take your money.
Good to know!Tear down wasnt so bad, I did it from the passenger side only. My problem was only having a 14mm allen socket and not a "L" wrench, so I had to move the gas tank over to get the ratchet into the crank.
A good tip I read was to use a bolt with a 14mm head and then lock nuts together on the other end and use those to turn it.
