Checklists for 600 and 7200 Mile Servicing

[Reciprocal]

In the pics that FroschRider posted, I see some adjustment screws between the two throttle sections - much like we used to have on multiple carb setups. My opinion; I don't think they're intended for regular throttle balance - just for re-aligning throttles if the two throttle body sections are separated.

I agree. If there was severe imbalance between either half pair, a more serious problem than throttle body is indicated.

Nice pics FroschRider, thanks!

I see you have posted your valve clearances, which would be the most importance maintenance item on my list. Easy enough to measure, but if you have to change, then cam chain, camshafts and bucket followers have to be disassembled. There may be some tight shims that can be substituted where there are loose ones, but may be necessary to order some replacement shims. This is the maintenance item I have performed unless there is a high degree of trust in the service department. It's time consuming too.

FroschRider's last picture seems to point at what looks like air screws on the two inside throttle bodies. If so, that would seem to indicate a balance adjustment. Probably never need to touch this, as would only have effectiveness at small throttle openings.
