    I went with these Taiwanese made shims. I wonโ€™t check valves for a couple more weeks though.

    A Hyo road race series? I had no idea! Iโ€™d like to hear more about that.

    I found the headlight adjustment. It is on the back right side of headlight shell, tucked in there a ways. I gave it 2 turns anti-clockwise with a Phillips screwdriver, we shall see how much it moved it up. And I figured out why my speedo light defaulted to 100% brightness. I did not realize you had to start the bike after adjusting gauge brightness.

    The best way to slow down a slow 125 is put more weight on the front wheel!

    The blue visual tab is there, but does not allow me to add media. I do not see “add media” anywhere.

    I click on the โ€œvisualโ€ but it wonโ€™t allow adding any pictures. It does nothing. ย Then on my posts, there is no โ€œeditโ€ visible. So no opportunity to edit. I went to that test link you posted and it wouldnโ€™t allow me to do anything. All this on my phone and/or my work computer. Never had an issue before.

    First time I rode this bike in full darkness and I realized that the headlight was pointed downward about 10 meters in front of me. That and the blinding speedo light made for a bit of a spooky ride! I already played with the speedo brightness, but for some reason it went full bright again. I havenโ€™t had a chance to figure out headlight adjustment on the Naked yet. I sure am infatuated with the sweet power spread of 4000 to 8500. ( in 250cc terms)

    What John said. A long punch and a hammer. Smooth and steady!

    Nights and early mornings are starting to get cool(60F), but afternoons have been pretty warm (80F). I am a bit in the mountains and leaves have started changing, leaves are starting to drop.

    Very frustrating that I added a full proper picture and only half of it loads up!

    700 miles on the clock and a fresh oil/filter change. This bike is pretty fun to ride. Lots of character and an interesting power band.

    JMP shims look rare over here. Besides OEM, PRO X ย seems to be slightly preferred over the Hot Cams. Still gathering info. Thanks Marcel.
