The photo shows "Complete Valve Shim Kit". This is NOT true.
I did the deed on my bike this winter and used 2 of the shims. The kit has sizes that don't even fit the FJR, but fit other bikes. Sizes range from 1.20mm to 3.5mm. Total of about 140 shims are in the kit, there are three in each size.
I used two of the 1.80 shims. My replaced shims are still in there (reusable), so there are now:
1.80 x 1
1.85 x 4
1.90 x 4
The rest of the kit is how it came (3 of every size). It also says on the box you can order refills.
So, if you need shims, this will work unless you need more than one of the 1.80's.
The Kit is $89.95 on the hotcams website. They sell for about $10 less than that on E-Bay.
$25 for the kit, plus shipping.
