Does anyone know a good source for a compleat set of valve shims. I am tired of waiting to get the shims I need to adjust the valves.

I just checked Bikebandit... How aptly named! They have all you want at $14.06 EACH!!!
Most bike shops will have these shims. Yamaha isn't the only bike that used them. Just make sure to measure them first since there is a 29.5mm shim and you can't tell by looking at it, but it won't fit in the shim bucket.
Ebay has full sets come on every once in a while, but they go pretty high.

Have you PM'd John? He has a 'library' of shims, you can swap your spares for the ones you need.Comment
