Sometimes a little slow on the up take...
Life story or review? My CRF450 just stopped (I noticed no gradual decrease in starting efficiency) starting a couple of years ago, and I gave up my favored front, easy access position in the garage and my son's bike took both my prime spot and my time. My boy broke his arm this Spring and our bikes recently swapped positions. Within 3 days of his broken arm these shims were ordered and within a week my bike was again starting and my 2 year hiatus from moto was over. The shims worked great and my bike now starts without issue. I’m way out of shape and ride like an old man, but the shims are great.

Cheaper by the Dozen...
If you are going to adjust the valves on your bike yourself buy this kit before you begin! If you are like me once you start a project you want to finish. Since you won't know what size shims you need until you get the bike torn apart if you have this kit on-hand you can complete this task all at once. Shims are good quality. The size of the shim is stamped on top but always check them with your micrometer before installing.

Must for anyone
I will shim out my valves till the end of their lifespan and it is incredibly nice to have just about every size possible to shim you bike back into specs. Sometimes intermediate sizes would be nice but always found that rounding to the next shim in the kit still puts everything within the designated tolerances. Just installed new Kibblewhite Black Diamond intake kit so I wont be bringing these out anytime soon but in 300 hours or so this kit will be back in my postride checklist.

Amazing results
i was recently having trouble starting my 2004 CRF250R, no matter how much i kicked it would not start. i bought this kit and replaced my intake valve shims and the bike fired "first kick" and idles like a dream. i highly reccomend Hotcams valve shim kit.

Better Than Expected
***2006 YZ450F*** I thought by looking at the pictures and description there would not be enough to re shim my valve train. It comes with a broad range of sizes with 3 pieces for each size in increments of .05. Easy to read marking on shim face makes it easy to identify which one you need. The case is built perfectly, you could shake it up and they would always stay organized. Would recommend and purchase again.

They do their job
The shims are very precise and accurate to what size they advertise which makes installation a breeze. They maintain their size and don't wear down which means they can be reused if need be. All in all a great kit. I must have reshimmed my LTRs close to 20 times with this kit and it has not let me down since.

Backfiring?
I just reshimed my crf450 with the shim kit. And now it will backfire, but won't start. This was my first solo time shimming the bike
Over 3 years ago Location: Billings, MT
It sounds like you don't have enough clearence, re measure your clearence and make sure you keep the shims that you take out seperated so can measure them to get the right clearence.

Most likely, your timing is off. Pull off the cover and recheck the timing.

It sounds like you may be a tooth off on your cam sprocket. I'd double check it.

will a kit from a 2007 honda 250 f work with the new 2010 i know it says all 250s but it dose not list the 2010

You will have to wait awhile as the 2010 just came out and it will take some time for aftermarket companies to tear down the new bike to see what will cross over from previous years, if any.

If you installed it wrong, than theirs a good chance the timing is off, so the bike probably won't start or if it does, it won't run properly.
Over 3 years ago Location: Atascadero, CA
I installed my cams incorrectly when I did my top end, i was off 1 tooth, It would barely start and when it started it did not run well, most noticeable on high loads (like in high gears or low RPM to high throttle input).

What bikes will this fit?
I know this has been answered, but a friend of mine has the kit for his '05 CRF 250 and I was wondering if the shims would fit on my '06 RMZ 250
MotoSport Staff
Over 4 years ago Location: Por+land
Yes, there are only 2 kits, a 250f kit and a 450f kit so as long as you both have 250f's the shims should be the same.
Over 3 years ago
yes there the same size

It says 3 shims for each size. But what if you have 4 valves? then you only have 3 shims of that size. Dont get it?
MotoSport Staff Expert
Over 4 years ago
typically your valve clearance will not require you to run 4 of the same shims for each valve. the exhaust valves versus your intake valves will have different clearances, thus using different size shims. you'll have enough shims to get your required clearances, as long as your bike is listed under the selected ride fitment.
Over 3 years ago Location: Brandywine, MD
Theres a million to one chance you will need the same size for all 4 valves.

Why is there only 3 shims? Will this work with the exhaust valves as well?
Expert MotoSport Staff
Over 4 years ago
you will receive more than 3 shims. What the description is saying is that you will get 3 shims for every size starting at 1.20mm to the largest size 3.50mm, in .05mm increments.
Over 3 years ago Location: Billings, MT
Yes, this kit will work with exhaust valves as well as intake valves. And there is 3 shims of every size.
