- R1200GS LC Valve Clearance Adjustment
In the video, the cam chain tensioner is removed, but you probably don't need to remove it.

Very good video! After changing the shims you have to turn the rear wheel a few times and set the top dead center again before the new valve clearance measurement. Reason: The crankshaft should be turned to allow the new shims to fit. Greetings from Germany, Bernd
Sehr gutes Video, ohne viel Blabla !
I had a Toyota previa car that I owned for over ten years. I checked the valve clearance after 300,000 kilometres and they were all still within the limits. The valves used an upside down bucket.
Amazing video. Looks easy. But I know when I do it myself I would mess things up :D
Thank you for the video
great job , keep it up mate
Excellent video. now I see why everyone buys the GS. regardless of any issues. That right there will keep your bike on the road for years. And lubing the splines regular
Great work 👍🏼
1A...👍🔧 greetings from Germany.
I respect Germany providing such a nice bike !
Not as simple as the older screw and locknut ones, but that doesn’t look bad at all.
Valves intake clearance is 0.15 mm and the valves to exaust is 0.15 mm. Right?.
Great informative video 👍 could you not remove the spark plug to make it easier to turn over the engine when trying to achieve the top-dead centre on aligning the camshafts
I was about to make the same comment. Always release or remove the spark plug when doing valvle clearences
you begun to tight the cam holder screws from the outside screws ??? is it rigth ?
Thanks for posting what brand torque wrench are you using?
I bought at amazon , amzn.to/3uVXBcz In UK, www.amazon.co.uk/Summit-Tools-Certificate-Calibration-WSP3-030CN/dp/B07H34BYM5/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=digital+torque+wrench&qid=1618631760&sr=8-9 this has different logo, but the contents look the same.
What rotating tools did you use to remove the bolts in the beginning? Both the ignition coil cover and the engine guard. I really like the design but could not find out the name.
It's German tool, Wera Zyklop
@@SchwarzeLanzenreiter Thank you - what's the other tool you used to remove the engine guard? the one that looks like a metal rod but it has a hinge?
@@Silentethief It called breaker handle or breaker bar (In Japan , usually called Spinner handle.) www.amazon.com/Craftsman-Flex-Handle-Breaker-47017/dp/B07MHL6BK5/ref=sr_1_13?dchild=1&keywords=breaker+handle&qid=1622080792&sr=8-13
@@SchwarzeLanzenreiter Thank you! I didn't recognize it was a breaker bar, but now I see it's a smaller breaker bar with an extension. I'd never thought of using a breaker bar like that, but it's genius!
what are those yellow marker you using for the gear aligned?
I love Mitsubishi Paint Marker, amzn.to/33gjNSW AKA Uni Paint Marker.
Hallo, welches Öl benutzt du? 5w40? Nach wie vielen Kilometern haben Sie sich angemeldet?
Hello, I'm using Castrol POWER1 Racing 4T 5W-40.The valve clearance was checked after 20,000 km of driving.
Can I ask why did you remove the cam chain tensioner?
It's true that the R1200GS doesn't have a timing chain on the cam sprocket, so it may not have been necessary to remove the tensioner. Rather, the service manual instructs you to install the tensioner, part number 111512, so that it is mechanically tensioned during maintenance, since the vehicle's tensioner is hydraulically tensioned.
I will add that this is only done to a cold engine. I would give the motor 12 hours of sitting in no less than 65° Also it would be better if the bike was on it's center stand.
Essa oficina e qual cidade
If I tried this, the GS would have a rumble like a Harley. For a minute. Then die.
Looks easy but not, my bike have 15.000km, begin watch videos for the job.
