I just did my valve ADJUSTMENT and it wasn't terribly difficult taking your time and researching before hand.
There's a bunch of threads here re the procedure... I had ONE exhaust valve, .001" too tight (outside of spec's). A shop probably would have left it as is, but I was right there.. Added another 1.5 hours to it (first time for me on this bike) but I had a shim kit already. Most importantly, I know it was done right (saved a bunch of $) and actually done..
