Basket Case 2004 Yamaha R1 Rebuild - Part 7 - Setting the Valves
Welcome Back!
In this new series I will be starting to rebuild my 2004 Yamaha R1 that came to me as a basket case. The goal for this series is to attempt to rebuild it as originally as possible for a little as possible. Some shortcuts will be made.
In this 7th video we will be setting the valve lash for the first time.

probably the best video on KZread explaining the valve adjustment process
Excellent video, I've got an fz1 with the same engine so it's super cool to learn more about the whole process.
what if you mix up the valves and buckets?
Daaamn bro this bike has 5valve per cylinder 😨
Keep cranking out these videos. Glad to see a garage re build like this. Continues to give me confidence!
How u taking the measurements with Cylinder TDC ? Ur vids has a lot of missing info sir !!!!
Great video this way seems a bit easier then doing it on the bike
Were you rotating the cams for each cylinder between edits? Or do you just set TDC on a certain cylinder and measure all the way through? I'd imagine you'd have to rotate but want to double check. If you were rotating, how were you gauging if you rotated it 180 degrees (or whatever Yamaha calls for on this specific engine)?
As soon as I started thinking I understand and I’ve got it figured out, you popped in with that 191 on the last intake cylinder and I thought I completely lost it untill you corrected yourself 😂 nice vid man how often should valves be checked?
How did you rotate the cams with the caps still torqued? Did you force them to rotate over with a tool on the sprockets?
Do you have to get the head resurfaced appreciate your videos bro !
