Many here speak about few if any valve adjustments are generally needed on the ST1100.
Seems quite stable.
I recently did my first ever valve adjustment. '99 1100 with 71k miles. Not sure if they had ever been checked by original owner. I bought it at 15k.
Intakes were (spec 005 -007)
cyl 1 ... 5, 6
cyl 2 ... 5, 5
cyl 3 ... 6, 6
cyl 4 ... 5, 5
Exhausts (spec 009 - 0011)
cyl 1 ... 6, 6
cyl 2 ... 8, 8
cyl 3 ... 8, 8
cyl 4 ... 7, 7
I centered everything.
Question is, what would cause the exhausts be so far out? Seems to not be the norm.
Has always run fine.
