GS1200SS Flat-Rate Motorcycle Inspection and Lots of Maintenance

Hey there, good evening
 

 
The valve clearance… the valve clearance…
This bolt here is seized up…
If I break it here, that’s the worst case. If I strip it, that’s the worst case too.
Pssshhh. Spray some penetrating oil, loosen it about two turns, tighten, loosen, tighten… doing this for about thirty minutes.
Sure enough★ it came out safely with no damage—that was close.
 

 
And then
 

 
All
 

 
There’s a bit of seizing, about sesame seed size
 

 
The overall condition of the dirt is what I’d call medium★
