So after getting a quote for my oilchange and valve adjustment after break in from my local Honda Shop, I broke down and decided to do it myself. With the manual (downloaded from here THANKS!) and some technical know how, I was able to tear her down in a matter of 1/2 hour or so. The valves were pretty tight, which I heard from local shop is normal. Put her all back together and ran her around the block. All was good untill one of the little spacer/washers for the front fender stay flew off down the road and gone.. =( Also ended up with two extra bolts that I just can not remember where they go.. Went back through everything with no luck. Just two regular 10mm bolts. Pretty short. only other place I saw these style was on the coil pack, however they are too short to be them. Any ideas????
oops.

Ya I'm going to yank the tank cover back off they have to go under there somwhere. Being that they aren't allen keys I know thye are probably not visible. Anyway thanks for the help guys. Maybe I'll do the reverse mod today as well.
Figured out
Found where they went. Tucked way up under front fenders.. Oops. Anyway think im hearing a little to much rattle from the top end, and in true safe than sorry fashion, im going back into the head to double check clearances. =)
