Valve adjust.

Well decided to check the valves as I have 2 other china-quads which arrived with overly tight valves. I was a bit concerned as I read a few posts detailing the need to drop the motor to adjust the valves. It turns out that on my TSM (Shineray) all that needs to happen is to remove the rear tank mount and lift it up. It swivels on the front mount to give the clearance necessary to remove the valve cover. The whole adjustment took maybe 20 minutes. I have set the clearance for .05mm as prescribed after finding both set to zero.
