Hey man, just wanted to say thank you for all of the videos you put out. I just finished doing valves on my 2017 with much help from this video! Cheers and God bless!
@@Brownkid422The only thing that I can recall possibly being different were the shim tolerances themselves. I would get yourself a copy of the service manual. They can be found for free online.
@@LukeKolarsky i bet getting around the wiring was a bear. I set up a piggyback ecu on my 2019 and it was a bit of a chore getting to all the cables and then reorganizing them.
Thanks for this super helpful video! I'm not sure if you'll see this but if you do, I'm about to do the first valve check on my 390ADV and have 2 questions: 1. the manual calls for Loctite 5910 on the half moons for the valve cover gasket which is proving difficult to find in the timeline I'm hoping for. Do you have any recommendations for a replacement? 2. I'm trying to get this done before a roughly 1500 mile trip next weekend. How bad is it if I push the valve clearance adjustment 1500 miles past the recommended 9300 mile mark? Thank you for your time!
Howdy, I actually try my best to respond to all comments. For the half moons, I would actually just use some RTV black. A think coat should be all that you need for those. As for the clearance adjustment, I would consider checking to see if they are at least in spec. I have found mine to be out of spec in as little as 6k miles. However, I have heard of people that have just complete forgotten about it. I would hate to go on such a long trip and then have something bad happen. I would also inspect the tensioner as well.
Good question and answer. I’ve got a Norden 901 Expedition and I’m at 11,500 miles and while doing my next oil change and service I found out the valves were to be checked at 9500 miles. So was wondering how bad it was too. I contacted dealer and they moved my appt. because they aren’t sure what and how to do it SO, that makes me nervous and am going to likely take it somewhere else. Anyway, great video and congrats on being mentally strong enough to do this type work. Even though I enjoy working on it and learning I also have zero patience for mistakes and when learning I’m full of those. 😤🤬🤯
@lukefish7562 cheers. I've got it down to about 45-60 mins now so I can usually knock it out pretty quick. The most annoying part is when threads start pulling out of the head.
@@RhoadsChristopher Thanks for the reply. I'm washing the bike today and will start working on it tomorrow. I ask a lot of the bike on most rides so definitely agree that it's wise to check. Parts will be here tomorrow thanks to Rocky Mountain ATV/MC and their fast shipping.
@@RhoadsChristopher What do you mean by threads pulling out of the head? Is this something I should be on the lookout for or something that starts happening after doing the job a few times?
Hey man, curious if you know the manual names for the camshaft support bolts. I’m doing mine this weekend and can’t verify which is which for torque specs. Maybe the camshaft bearing support? Appreciate the help 👍🏽 I’m assuming they’re 10Nm?
I’m working on a 2017 and our manuals are different, obviously haha. I was just using this as a reference video since I know a majority of the engine is relatively the same still.
First thank you for the video. It was very informative, I’m getting ready to do this on my Husqvarna 401. If you respond to these, I have a question if you don’t mind? How many miles is on your bike? I’m wondering because I have looked around and on either the 401s or the 390s I’ve never seen more than 15,000 miles on one. Now I haven’t looked around very hard, I’m just wondering if there’s a reason for that like they don’t last? I’m asking you because in the video you alluded to that you’ve done a number of valve clearance checks.
Howdy, currently I'm at over 24,000 miles at the moment. I've done it a BUNCH of times, but keep in mind I have aftermarket cams and had to reshim a few additional times to get it right.

As always a very informative and detailed video, watched from start to end. Keep up the amazing work. Subbed!
Thanks for the sub!

You got it bro. I'm glad it provided you with the information to get the job done.
Any difference between gen 1 and the gen 2 (2017+)

Thanks for taking the trouble to video and post. However, I find it easier to remove the engine and check.

Howdy, the repair manual on pg 149 describes them as screw, camshaft bearing bridge. It is listed for 11 nm or 8.1 ftlbs

Nice！
