Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I've never adjusted my valves myself on my DRZ. I've probably watched this video three or four times now and it's really making me anxious to want to try myself. Snow is melting fast and riding season is upon us in my area so I'm afraid if I don't get it right I'm going to lose ride time 🤣 seriously though, thank you!👊🏼

Great video, i'm down east in Nova Scotia I have a 2018 DRZ400S, I do a lot of riding has 31000 kms on it now, I'm getting a lot of deceleration pops when I let the throttle go but none in acceleration and It stalls every week or so once then takes a few min to start again but will run fine in between, starts up real easy, I am going to check the clearances and take the carb off and clean it, I use an NGK iridium spark plug and only use supreme fuel.

Great video! Just did an install of stage 1 hotcams, however my tolerances were way too tight on the exhaust side, this is definitely going to help!

Thx a lot !! it is very well made . this video add so much confidance to only use the factory maintenence guide . It will help for changing to stage 1 HOT CAMS ;)

Easy and clear, THANKS!

Great video thx for sharing!

Thank you for charing. just subscribed

Great vid mate cheers

Hello. I done this job. I think it will be ok.I have a question. I read that I must verify that my cams are getting oil. I read that I must take out the bung beside the Tensioner. I did and have turned the engine over using the starter with the plug removed. Please tell me why no oil has come up so far. ( New oil and new filter). Thank you.

I was hoping this bike did NOT have the bucket/shim style valves.

First time doing this, I’ve got the line at TDC, but my cams are pointing in instead of out…any suggestions?

Is there anything special to reset timing chain when you put it back in? Like tighten or loosen or you put it all back together and it’s fine?

When you/he said «take note of the orientation before taking off the cams», he ment the lobes right?

Ok ok ok thanks

Hi,do you have to remove the spark plug to check the valves?

What year model is that

My cam covers refuse to come off, everything is loosen. Still trying to figure how to take it off for the past weeks

It looks so scary so much to do.

You from Wisconsin?

Wow, never gotten motion sickness from a how to video before. very informative but the camera work literally missed the mark.

Is this the same engine as ltz 400? Bc mine won't start it pops out flames but no start

too shaky to watch. also, switch to decaf

Bucket and shims. No thanks
