Hi Alejo.

Right now my bike has 6600mi, all valves set at the 0.06mm standard, and cold starts fine after 3s in the morning with full choke applied (2°C/36°F, 260m ASL).
However, many colleagues at my country set their valves at 0.08/0.10mm (intake/exhaust) and are happy with it.

Regards,
Juan Carlos.
