What is done on an interim service?

[Teabag_Terry2]

Hi guys,

I am planning an interim servcie for my 2003 Yamaha R1. Unfortunately it also needs valve clearances to be checked and/or adjusted as required.

Does anyone know what the interim service involves? I am pretty sure I can handle most of it except the valves, I really don't wanna take the top off the engine, but am happy with oil,coolant changes, brake pads, putting in a new battery etc.

Regards,

Terry

I'm pretty sure I can get my local Yamaha dealer to check the valves for me, and I can do the rest. Any idea how much I should be payiing for valve clearances on an R1? I honestly don't have a clue, just a ballpark figure would be a help, guys. I gather it's quite a few hours of labour and my local mechanic charges quite a lot per hour so am worried about that mainly.
