Not sure since I own a 2001, but the guy that adj. mine at 24K removed
the cams - said it was easier??
WTF, my ass, with the tool from Triumph it is extremely, I mean
exceedingly easy to adjust the valves on the '01 ST engine.
It's like, rotate engine forward so the buck it down, install tool,
rotate engine 360 deg, thus cam will move 180 deg, get magnet pull shim,
place new shim on magnet put in place and use a screw driver to separate
magnetic probe from shim, rotate engine 360 deg to lower bucket, remove
tool and you are done.
Why would you want to mess with the cam chain and bearings if you don't
have to?????
regards,
Tom
