I've got a buddy in PA looking for a set of lazer cut shims..............can anyone help? He's not real tallented which means him cutting a set is outta the question. :burp:

Thanks
Rick

:smilielol: Cruel. Very cruel.

Good thing Pokey isn't internet sauvy.

I was on the phone talking with him when I posted it...................may have forgot to mention what I wrote though. :div20:

You don't need lazer cut anything, if you have the blade type valves, and IF you have a BRAIN you can use washers that are the proper thickness, they go between the powervavles and the mounting pin. Nothing to it, there something simular to the power valve shims that bikeman sells.

Well, since I do HAVE A BRAIN I'll pass on that LAME BRAIN FIX and continuing looking for a nice set of the lazer cut shims...............thanks anyways. :drunk:

Do not use washers they have the potential to fracture and the peices fall into the cylinder. I have some laser cut shims out of aluminum that will not fracture. $10.00 shipped. This is not a sales pitch, I don`t do this to make any profit. Just trying to help.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for chiming in, yes the washer as a shim idea is a short term fix at best.
I'll forward your info and get my buddy to deal with you direct.

Appreciate it.

Rick

LMAO, what is this world coming to, washers spacing away the powervalves the same way the plates can? and there still breaking and shattering? Please explain!!!

Short term at best? haha

Mike, thanks...I'm the contact for ZR's buddy. I PM'd you my address this morning, and a check is on the way. ZR is right...the owner that needs the shims is a great guy, but has these giant, greasy, mis-shapen paws that can barely hold a can of beer, let alone make something smaller than a breadbox! :smilielol:

Thanks again, Rob Clark

I've yet to see him have problems with a can of beer...............the rest seems pretty accurate.
Poor Pokey, not here to defend himself.

Hey my cat eats dogs,

You realize you are talking to THE MAN! when it comes to valve shims right? If it wasn't for ZRsledhead, we would all still be taking out pistons.
And he was nice enough to let us all in on it for FREE!

Can you see Pokey typing? I told him about this conversation...expect a call tonight! :lol2:

Mike,

Sent you a PM. Please let me know if you have anymore left for sale.

Thanks,
David

Hi Robb,

Hope yer old ZR treated you right this past winter..............enjoy'd riding my 900. :div20:

Yes it did! Good to hear your 900 is well.

Take care!
