You can thank Kawasaki for this idea. There is a special hook shaped tool you can sneak between the cam and bucket that allows shim replacement without pulling the cam(s). At high RPM sometimes the shims can get spat out causing all manner of catastrophe..... there is a "shim under" conversion that does require cam removal to adjust. Nothing like a tool box full of $5 shims at tune up time!
