valve clearance

Just checked the valve clearances on my Z1A. All are 0.09 or 0.10 except for 2 exhaust which are 0.12. Would it be better to shim down to 0.07 or leave as is?

All advice appreciated.

Minty,
Aim for between 0.10mm-0.15mm

sounds like they're fine to me for now.

originally specification was .05 inlet and .1 exhaust.

Either leave as is or re-shim the rest towards 0.15mm.
