SHOCK I'm in the wrong business
Thank you for emailing us in regard to your GZ250. I would factor $300-400 for your valve adjustment, including new gasket, and shims.
Hope that information helps. If you would like us to schedule you in, just give us a call. Thanks! Amanda L. Mitchell Coastal Powersports, Inc. 507 Mary Esther Cutoff NW Fort Walton Beach, FL 32548

Re: SHOCK I'm in the wrong business
Where do you think they are going to put the shims?

Wow!! Avoid them like the Plague. I doubt they have many return customers.
Bet you are glad you did the job yourself. |

If anyone takes it to the shop, it should be 1 hour's labour & no parts.

Re: SHOCK I'm in the wrong business
Very glad I did it myself. IF I get to keep the GZ I'll buy a Harbor freight wheel balancer to do the tires myself too!!
I say if because stepdaughter saw a fresh accident - van turned infront of motorcycle, wheels still turning on overturned van and bodies laying in roadway. Family is set against my continuing to ride.

Re: SHOCK I'm in the wrong business
Does that mean the rest of the family will stop driving?? Not likely I would imagine. We realize as riders that there is more risk on 2 wheels but we accept that. You have no doubt seen a lot of road carnage on the job and know first hand of the dangers to life and limb.
Just buy that big old Wing and light it up for visibility on the road. Make a spectacle of yourself. |

I ride a stretch of road known for motorcycle deaths, yet it's one of my favorite roads. You never know (Who, What, When or Where) anything can happen. I respect the road, but don't dwell on things that I have no control over.
